It’s time for Eddie to hold up his hand and admit his mistakes

A FEW weeks ago, in a ‘Where are they now’ piece on the Kilkenny/Limerick teams from the 1973/74 All-Ireland finals, I wrote that in 1974 Nicky Orr was the first Protestant to captain a Kilkenny team to an All-Ireland title.

> I was wrong. Nicky Orr is and always was Catholic, and I apologise to him for getting it wrong.

Nothing against Protestantism, of course, but religion is very personal. The information was given to me in good faith, printed in good faith, but it was incorrect.
