Ephie Fitzgerald 'disgusted' as Cork and Galway fans suffer semi-final TV blackout

“My father is in hospital and he had arranged to get a television into the room to watch the game. The families and supporters are the people I really feel sorry for.”

“Disgusted” was the word Ephie Fitzgerald reached for.

Disgust at the initial venue change for today’s All-Ireland ladies football semi-final, disgust at the relatively short notice with regard to the second change of venue and the game being brought forward by half an hour, disgust that the game wasn’t shown on television, but most of all, disgust at what his players have had to put up with today and indeed, earlier this week.
