ONE OF IRELAND’S finest footballers attended the All-Ireland Round 1 qualifier at Wexford Park yesterday to lend the Model County his support.

Ex-Ireland, Manchester United and Aston Villa defender Paul McGrath, who lives in Wexford, was there to cheer on Liam Dunne’s side but watched them beaten 2-22 to 0-20 by Cork after Conor Lenehane’s two first half goals.

Dubliner McGrath had jokingly apologised to proud Rebel Roy Keane with a tweet before the game:

One of hurling’s top managers believes GAA chiefs are ignoring weaker counties

Kevin Doyle picked a good time to score his first goal since moving to the US
