Paddy is of the most experienced referees in the game. lie is having a ,'cry busy season this year, hi s games include Ihe Bank of Ireland Lcinsler Senior Championship game between Westmeath and OrTa ly and the All Ireland Qualifier between Derry and Wicklow.l lis most recent game at top level was the Quarter final game between Mayo and Tyrone in Croke Par"'. We welcome him to Ki lshcclan and wish him well in today's final. John Ryan from the Doherlahan Club referees his first South Scnior I hlrling finallod.w John has been refereeing for the past seven years and is one of the County's most experienced officials. lie has taken charge of the North senior hurling !inal in 2002 and has refereed the Munster Minor I hlrling Championship game between Cork and Waterford this year. John is !lostranger to South Tipp and has refereed senior hurling championship games in the Division in 2003 and 2004. We wish him we ll in laday's finaL Fethard's 28th Title Fethard are going for their 28" South Title (I" in 1914) this Sunday having last won in 2002 in defeating Moyle Rovers on a score li ne Fethard 0-13 Moyle Rovers 0-8. With ten of that first fi fleen avai lable and a lot of young talcnt coming through the number gamc on Su nday should be okay, but not having played Commercials in a final si nce the Munster League Fi nal of 1999 (Commercials Winni ng) they are an unknown quantity and will be very much respected for reaching this final with very impressive displays. We wi ll have to call on all our experience to be able to beat Commercials as Fethard has always brought the best Ollt of Clonme! Commercials. the incentive being a Semi Final Spot in the County. Fcthards path to the final was in the first round, Fethard 2-23 Carrick Swans 1-4, in the quarter final Fethard. 3-19 Mullinahone 0-4. in the Semi Final we made hard work in advancing on a score line. Fethard 0-9 Cahir 0-8. to reach the final for the first time since 2002. Lets hope our young boys will bring back the 0 Shea Cup to the Friary Town on Sunday evening and in so doing make it two Tilles in 2000.s to add to the three in the nineties, the four in the eighties and the three in the Seventies.
