Galway chairman Paul Bellew has expressed disappointment at the 7pm throw-in for the county’s Leinster SHC final against Kilkenny in Croke Park on Saturday week.

Bellew believes the late start will have an impact on the Galway crowd for the game in Dublin, saying it denies a lot of children the opportunity to watch the county in a senior decider.
