Walsh: Déise wanted financial ‘sweetener’ for Semple final

Munster Council chairman Sean Walsh has claimed Waterford wanted a financial “sweetener” to play this year’s provincial senior hurling final at Semple Stadium.

Walsh confirmed Waterford floated the idea at the provincial body’s Competitions Control Committee meeting on June 7.

The proposal was then withdrawn by Déise delegate Anthony Walsh when he was informed it was out of order.
