Waterford vent fury over Semple tickets

THE strained relationship between Waterford County Board and the Munster Council continues to worsen, after Déise delegates slammed the tickets they received for last Sunday’s provincial hurling final.

The two organisations were at loggerheads last month in a row over the venue for the decider, but the tensions resurfaced at a meeting on Monday night which was dominated by the topic.

Former Waterford hurling boss Tony Mansfield said many of the tickets were “an absolute disgrace” while Stradbally chairman Pat Fennell said the tickets allocated to his club were so bad that they had sent many of them back.
