Kingston admits Rebels 'didn't help themselves' as he avoids debate on his future at Cork helm

'We had 24 shots and seven scores, so the efficiency was really poor,' says manager of a first half display which cost his side dearly at Semple Stadium

Tough pill to swallow: Cork manager Kieran Kingston during Saturday's quarter-final defeat to Galway.

Cork manager Kieran Kingston wasn't entertaining talk of his own future at the final whistle in Semple Stadium.

"I’ve just come off the pitch and I haven’t even washed my hands yet. I went to the Galway dressing-room and spoke to our own backroom team, so I haven’t thought of anything," the Cork manager said after a one-point loss to Henry Shefflin's side in an All-Ireland quarter final that took its time warming up.
