Officials urge Fitzgerald to stay on as manager

SENIOR Waterford GAA officials are hopeful that Davy Fitzgerald will remain at the helm next season.

Though the county struggles to come to grips with their crushing loss to Kilkenny in Sunday’s All-Ireland final, there is huge support for the Sixmilebridge man to retain the Bainisteoir’s bib.

Local radio station WLR were yesterday inundated with calls of support for the former all-star to lead the county in the 2009 season.
