Former GAA president Nickey Brennan believes his native Kilkenny and Tipperary are both due an apology following the scoreline controversy arising from the counties’s All-Ireland SHC semi-final.

Brennan, a former Kilkenny player, manager and county chairman, is in no way calling for the game to be replayed, insisting Tipperary were the better team and deserve to progress to the final where they are due to face Cork on July 20.
