No final favours from Kildare

KIERAN McGEENEY doesn’t see any reason why Kildare would support a proposal to bring forward the Bord na Mona O’Byrne Cup final.

The defending champions face 2010 winners DCU in the decider scheduled for next Sunday after a resounding victory over Dublin in a heated affair in front of a healthy 6,086 crowd in St Conleth’s Park.

DCU manager Niall Moyna said they will contact the Leinster Council about the possibility of rearranging the game in Newbridge for an earlier date. They play Cork IT in a Sigerson Cup opener tomorrow week and could put out a second-string team against Kildare.
