Which team is under greater psychological pressure?

PATRICK KIELTY is better known for his work on TV – and for once dating Amanda Byram – but he can also boast an impressive knowledge of the GAA scene despite being domiciled in London.

Sub keeper on the Down team that beat Kildare and Cork – sound ominous? – on the way to the All-Ireland minor title in 1987, he was the number one for the county youngsters the following two seasons.

That CV led to him giving an interview on RTÉ this week when he went into considerable detail about his county’s progress to this year’s decider.
