Davy Fitzgerald blasts RTÉ for portrayal of sideline histrionics

Davy Fitzgerald has criticised RTÉ for their selective footage of the maverick Clare boss on match-day.

Fitzgerald railed against RTÉ for constantly highlighting his over-zealous sideline behaviour, adding that while the camera is in close proximity during his moments of excitable expression, it is nowhere in sight for the remainder of games.

The All-Ireland winning manager has studied Clare games televised by RTÉ and said he featured, on average, for two of 73 minutes per match, more often than not the two minutes where he is going “absolutely nuts”.
