Begrudgery puts Kilkenny back in the firing line on All-Ireland football weekend

Come Sunday, Cork’s footballers of 1990 will be fêted at halftime in the Senior Final, same as Cork’s hurlers of 1990, four weeks ago, stood before the crowd. Those players’ achievements remain a unique assertion of dual county status in modern times.
The silver anniversary of double triumph might prompt thoughts on dual competitiveness and the questions involved. Item: this topic is rising like a bruise in Tipperary GAA. Quite a few people in that county reckon football was a hindrance to their Minor hurlers of 2015.
