Eamon O’Shea has special bond with Tipperary players, says Bergin

It’s just as well Eamon O’Shea is on the verge of staying on as Tipperary manager for a third season.

Kieran Bergin can’t countenance the camp without his presence. “It would be a backwards step next year,” he says.

Bergin doesn’t see too many issues. “I think, talking to the players, he is just trying to iron out a few issues that he had maybe with the county board last year, maybe just to get that extra 2% out of the players.”
