'Pure horsesh**e': Spillane responds to suggestion he was over-the-top in Fitzmaurice criticism

Pat Spillane has said it is “pure horsesh**e” to suggest he was in anyway over-the-top or personal in his criticism of Éamonn Fitzmaurice during the latter’s six-year tenure as Kerry football manager.

Spillane, writing in his Sunday World column, was responding to an Éamonn Fitzmaurice interview in the Irish Examiner earlier this month where the former Kerry manager accused Spillane of having "a good few pops" at him.
