Kildangan facing trip to Kerry

TIPPERARY champions Kildangan have failed in an attempt to change the venue for next Sunday’s Munster club JFC final against Kerry outfit Dromid Pearses.

The game will take place at a Kerry venue, Moyvane, the home club of Munster Council chairman and former Kingdom chief, Sean Walsh.

Kildangan team manager Eamon Kelly revealed a request went into the Munster Council last week, requesting a venue in a neutral county. But that appeal fell on deaf ears, and Kildangan will fly the flag for Tipperary on Kerry soil next weekend.
