Munster fans want silver lining for Paulie

Even the absence of skipper Peter O’Mahony and his international team mate Conor Murray through injury hasn’t diminished the sense of quiet confidence among Munster supporters as they head north for this evening’s Guinness Pro 12 final against the Glasgow Warriors at the Kingspan Stadium.

If for no other reason, they resolutely believe that Paul O’Connell’s final appearance in the red shirt will inspire his colleagues and team mates to secure one last piece of silverware for the Limerick legend.
