Tadhg Kennelly has apologised for the tone of his comments in his book ‘Unfinished Business’ on the bruising challenge on Nicholas Murphy in the opening seconds of this year's All-Ireland football final.

The autobiography, ghost-written by Australian Scotty Gullan, incensed Leesiders by detailing Kennelly’s plans to lay down an early marker against Cork.
