Ryan appeals to Deise fans for support

WATERFORD chairman Paddy Joe Ryan last night made a strong appeal to the Deise hurling fans to renew the level of support that was so vital in last year’s historic Munster championship success.

Ryan is concerned that, up to yesterday, the demand for tickets had not been as expected.

"The news from the Munster Council is that there has been a much brisker demand in Limerick," he said.
