Sheedy playing down Tipp NHL title win

Blue and Gold hurling fans have waited seven years for a major trophy and just because Liam Sheedy has coached his native county to National Hurling League honours - he is not getting overly excited about it.

The last time Tipp claimed the League trophy in 2001, Nicky English also guided the Premier to All-Ireland success in the same season.

It is far too early this year to be drawing parallels however, the Portroe native has said.

Sheedy will be looking for a further improved performance from his charges when they reappear for their opening Munster Senior Hurling Championship tie.
