Fennell finally letting his football do the talking with St Vincent’s

Eamon Fennell still receives taunts about his protracted transfer to St Vincent’s from O’Toole’s two years ago.

As he prepares to line out for the Marino club in Saturday’s All-Ireland semi-final against Ballinderry, the 29-year-old midfielder admits the hold-up, which lasted over three and a half years, still haunts him.

“I get it said the odd time and there are always people that are going to chirp in now and again with that stupid remark, and I do hate it because things didn’t go the way I would have liked in O’Toole’s.
