Dan Shanahan hits back at critics

Dan Shanahan last night took a swipe at some of his former team-mates who have been critical of Waterford’s tactics.

The Déise selector did not name anyone in particular, although Ken McGrath suggested earlier in the week that the players were being held back by the sweeper system.

Shanahan remarked: “We are disappointed we didn’t win, delighted we didn’t lose. Let’s be honest, no-one gave us a chance coming up here, only the belief we had in the dressing room. That hasn’t gone away.”
