Eamon Dunphy has accused RTE Sport of ‘ageism’ - saying anyone with a personality is “out” – as he pays an emotional tribute to “national treasure” Ted Walsh.
The famous father of jockey’s Ruby, Ted Jr and Katie Walsh stunned viewers and colleagues when he announced his retirement after 40 years on the final day of the Punchestown Racing Festival on Saturday.
Reacting to Walsh’s retirement, a devastated Dunphy said Ted will never be replaced – saying he believes the world of punditry was being “destroyed” by people who have no personality.
