Meath-Louth tension is history, declares Sheridan

AS THE counties square off again on Sunday, Joe Sheridan believes the tensions between Meath and Louth stemming from the acrimonious 2010 Leinster final have dissipated.

The Seneschalstown man, who scored the controversial winning goal, believes last year’s derby qualifier in Cavan, which passed off without major incident, went a long way to ending hostilities between the counties.

“Thank God, it’s all in the past now,” said Sheridan. “Everything is sorted out now. The game last year was great to get it over and done with, given all the crap from the year before. The result was good for us but it was a relief to play Louth again and have it done. We all know what happened and hopefully now we can all move on.”
