McGahan: We let fans down

MUNSTER head coach Tony McGahan has spoken of his embarrassment at the manner of the province’s exit from the Amlin Challenge Cup last weekend.

After a 20-12 defeat by Harlequins at Thomond Park last Saturday, which dumped Munster out of European competition at the semi-final stage for the third consecutive season, McGahan has the task of getting his players back up and running for the close of the Magners League campaign.

Already assured of a home semi-final in two weeks’ time, Munster complete their regular season programme this Friday night in Limerick against Connacht, with the head coach looking for a positive response to the sorry display home fans were subjected to last weekend.
