Donnelly still backs Interpros

An official attendance of 658 was recorded for the Martin Donnelly Interprovincial hurling final in Nowlan Park on Sunday as hosts Leinster easily fended off the late challenge of Connacht to claim the title.

Given such a paltry crowd, and the lack of television coverage, what kind of return in investment can that represent to sponsor Martin Donnelly?

Is it worth his while at all continuing to put his hand in his pocket to maintain this competition?
