Declan Hannon: 'We definitely do not have 53 in the backroom team, that’s for sure'

“It gave people something to talk about, so it did. Obviously, that included the 36 panel of players. We definitely do not have 53 in the backroom team, that’s for sure.”

Limerick captain Declan Hannon has laughed off the error he made in his Munster SHC winning speech that there are 53 people in the senior hurlers’ management team.

The Adare man mentioned the number as he thanked John Kiely and his group having lifted the Mick Mackey Cup following the county’s sixth consecutive senior provincial title.
