Kerry county board secretary Peter Twiss has rejected the suggestion the Kerry senior football championship was drawn out to maximise revenue.

The Kerry SFC final will be played on Sunday, October 28, a week later than the 2017 decider, despite Kerry exiting the All-Ireland series on August 4 and the county intermediate and junior championships having been wrapped up in early May.
