The Nire stand in the way as Stradbally bid for historic four in-a-row

DESPITE Waterford’s poor fortunes on the inter-county front, Stradbally’s bid for a fourth consecutive SFC title has generated much interest in tomorrow’s decider at Dungarvan, (3.30pm).

The Nire stand in the way as Stradbally bid for historic four in-a-row

It is a repeat of the 2002 decider in which they were taken to a replay by the Nire before retaining their title by two points in an exciting tie.

No team has managed to land the four-in-a-row since the late 1940s while Stradbally will also be seeking their 13th title at senior grade. The Nire are bidding for their fifth crown last won in 2000 when they defeated Kilrossanty.
