Convention were wrong on Croker

RECEIVED a letter a few weeks ago from a Cork minor selector (or maybe it was all five, it wasn’t made clear).

Having made a strong case against my claim that Newtownshandrum star James Bowles was “practically ignored by the county minor selectors,” the letter ended with the following statement: “Diarmuid, take the chip off your shoulder, it is time now to support Cork teams without being negative.”

Right there he lost me, completely.
