Cork claims anger Limerick mentors

LIMERICK selector Gary Kirby has reacted angrily to reported comments attributed to Cork’s Joe O’Leary after Cork’s All-Ireland SHC quarter-final win over the Shannonsiders.

“Some of the tactics adopted by our opponents were totally unacceptable,” O’Leary said after the game. “Some of our players were hit by Limerick mentors and our coach, John Allen, was also intimidated on the sidelines. The level of intimidation was unreal and totally unacceptable.”

Kirby responded yesterday.
