Deise woes continue.
Whether it’s a hangover from last year’s All Ireland final or a cunning ploy from Derek McGrath to lull everybody into thinking Waterford have lost the plot, but I haven’t seen Waterford play so woefully bad for many a year. With three losses from three, and never even looking remotely like they were going to win any game, this level of performance can’t be doing their confidence any good. It’s obvious the management are not putting a priority on the league, but that’s scant consolation for the faithful supporters who are paying good money to watch such poor fare. Unless something changes radically next week against Cork in Pairc Ui Chaoimh, I can’t see much joy there. Division1 B here we come!
