Mass brawl erupts following Kildare hurling Championship prelim

Daragh Nolan, 7 Jul

Sparks, and indeed fists, were flying following Éire Óg Corra Choill's

1-13 to 1-10 win over Coill Dubh.

The referee had long departed after the UPMC Senior Hurling

Championship Preliminary Round clash when things escalated in Manguard

Park. The following fixture, Moorefield v Athy in the Reserve Football

League Division 1 Final, was slightly delayed due to the extended

scuffle.

After some ebb and flow to the tensions, stern words escalated to

physical exchanges with seemingly very few members of either side not

ending up involved.
