I'M CIAN TO MAKE AMENDS

CIAN SHEEHAN admits the Limerick footballers have let themselves down as they bid to redeem their season against Clare on Saturday.

Limerick were relegated from Division Two of the League as they failed to pick up a win, with manager Ray Dempsey (below) departing after their draw with Meath in round five.

Coach Mark Fitzgerald stepped up but couldn’t stop the rot as they lost to Kildare and Clare in their closing games. But they meet the Banner again at the TUS Gaelic Grounds this weekend in the Munster semi-final, where a win would lift them out of the Tailteann Cup and into the All-Ireland group stages.
