Letters to the Editor: Club players deserve much better treatment

the split season will kill off club hurling

I read with interest, and a certain amount of incredulity,  Liam Sheedy’s article on the trouble hurling is in.

Liam made some very interesting points but where has he been with 12 months or more? He borrowed the analogy used by Donal Óg Cusack about ‘the game being starved of oxygen’. It wasn’t today, yesterday or last month that the Cloyne man made a passionate plea to save hurling. Four times in the last year on this very letters page I have outlined my personal fears for the future of our national game.
