McCaffrey: We’re not far off

Johnny McCaffrey likes his anonymity.

Give him the choice of being a face in the crowd in Dublin or the man about town in Kilkenny and he’ll opt for the metropolis every time.

“Nah, we’re happy enough to be plodding around and not being known,” he smiles. “It’s different down the country and probably not just in Kilkenny but in Limerick and Cork and Tipperary as well. But we’ve grown up like this and it’s normal to us and it doesn’t really affect us.”
