There won’t be too many neutrals rooting for Kilmacud Crokes this weekend - but Shane Cunningham couldn’t care less.
One of the largest GAA clubs in the country, their acquisition of Galway’s Shane Walsh last year drew much scorn on both the Crokes and Walsh, with his native Kilkerrin-Clonberne left without their star player.
In the absence of Paul Mannion through injury, Crokes have hardly missed a beat with Walsh in tow as they’ve progressed to a second successive All-Ireland final, looking to go one better against Glen on Sunday having been dramatically edged out by Kilcoo last year.
