We won’t diminish any competitions, says O’Sullivan

Neither Cork nor Tipperary proposed making their Munster SFC semi-final part of a triple-header at Semple Stadium this Sunday, Munster GAA chiefs insist.

The Cork and Tipperary footballers meet Saturday in Thurles (7pm), with the minor (12pm) and senior (2pm) hurlers from both counties in action at the same venue less than 24 hours later.

Liam Kearns’ charges overcame Waterford last Saturday but are angry at having to line out again this weekend. Playing on Sunday would at least have allowed supporters from both counties take in the two senior games.
