Fitzpatrick: Happiest day of my life
“I’ve been involved with the Louth team since 1980,” revealed Fitzpatrick after his side clinched their first Leinster final appearance since 1960 following their win over Westmeath.
“And to be honest this is the happiest day of my life since then. In the past many Louth teams would have given up if they were six points up with just eight minutes left, and they suddenly found themselves only one point in front. But this is a true grit team, and I’ve never been so proud of a bunch of lads.
