Angry reaction in Waterford to cancellation of games

THERE has been an angry reaction in Waterford after GAA chiefs postponed all six senior football championship ties next weekend.

St. Saviours manager Tony Corcoran, himself a former county player, branded the decision an “absolute disgrace’’ and insisted that every team in the football championship has been badly let down by the county board.

Corcoran said: “Our club has been all geared-up to play a vital football championship game and now we are being told at the drop of a hat that the game is not going ahead. We had been given this date months ago and that was what we have been planning for. Now it is all up in the air, and as far as I am concerned the postponement is an absolute disgrace.”
