O'Dwyer writes off bookies' interest in Laois

Laois boss Mick O'Dwyer has laughed off the bookies' Leinster final interest in the midlands outfit as "amazing" considering they haven't won a title since 1946.

Speaking at the launch of the final in Dublin today Micko revealed that despite the top form of his players the bookies are way off the mark.

"To be honest, there should be no such thing as a favourites tag on us because we have achieved nothing yet.

"We've won a few championship games and got to a league final earlier in the year but I don't see any silverware in the cabinet and the punters should remember that," stressed O'Dwyer.
