Flynn: Fitzgerald is playing mind games

PAUL FLYNN says Waterford boss Davy Fitzgerald may be attempting to deflecting criticism of his players by placing himself in the media spotlight.

Fitzgerald has come under close scrutiny since Sunday’s Munster semi-final draw against Limerick after he claimed a Munster Council official ‘held his son back’ as the team entered the ground and also declared his side were not notified to return to the field for the second-half of the match.

Flynn, who brought the curtain down on his Waterford senior career last winter, believes the controversy has removed the spotlight from Waterford’s poor display last Sunday.
