Identity crisis behind Tipp’s disintegration

It has been an unprofitable 12 months for outlandish Tipperary ideas. Plans for The Casino had to be scrapped. The blueprint for The Circus, alas, wasn’t.

That’s how county chairman Sean Nugent described Sunday’s show, when Lar Corbett doggedly pursued Tommy Walsh and Pa Bourke around Croke Park like they were conducting an extramarital liaison and he was an investigator on a divorce brief. An indiscrete PI, mind you, and an ineffective one, since his camera remained in Jackie Tyrrell’s pocket.
