Fitzgerald says counties with ‘no interest’ making decision

Clare manager Davy Fitzgerald says non-hurling counties shouldn’t have the same say in the league structures as those where there is a tradition of the game.

Fitzgerald, who saw his side retain their Division 1A status recently, has been one of the most outspoken critics of the current system and has no love for next year’s format either with quarter-finals between Divisions 1A and 1B.

“I’m saying this as a hurling person, not as Clare manager — I’m just concerned. I know it’s easy to say the counties need to get together, decide what the best system is,” said Fitzgerald.
