Houlihan: Sunday could hurt so much

THESE are trying times for former Limerick hurling great Mike Houlihan.

For the first few months of this year there was the senior hurling panel controversy that convulsed the county and leaves Limerick with a virtually new side for tomorrow’s Munster SHC semi-final with Cork.

Then this week Richard Bruton decides it’s time for a leadership challenge against Enda Kenny and as a sitting Fine Gael councillor in Limerick, this was another fine mess Mike could have done without.
