Hurling boss John Kiely slams Limerick’s ‘abusive’ fans

Limerick manager John Kiely has told abusive fans to stay away from Limerick games if they intend to make life difficult for his players.

The Garryspillane man was incensed by the verbal slurs directed at his team when they went down to Cork by 21 points in the Gaelic Grounds last month, conceding seven goals in a Munster Senior Hurling League tie.

Kiely qualified his remarks by insisting these people are in the minority among Limerick supporters but as his team open their Allianz Division 1B account away to Wexford on Sunday he says they have no place at their matches.
