VETERAN CORK HURLING attacker Patrick Horgan has offered a remarkable summary of their 2022 season, claiming it was “kind of a failure before it kind of even happened.”
With a wasteful Cork struggling in attack in the first-half of the All-Ireland quarter-final against Galway, Horgan was brought on and contributed four points but couldn’t prevent a season ending defeat. “I didn’t think…I thought for a lot of last year that there was a lot of, I suppose, treatment going on that kind of…that I thought wasn’t fair. That doesn’t mean to say anybody else didn’t think it was fair, I suppose. Anybody who doesn’t play thinks they’re being treated unfairly but, yeah, I was one of them and I thought I was being treated unfairly.”
It wasn’t the first time in his career that Horgan was dropped by Kingston. Back in 2017, during Kinston’s first spell in charge, he cut the Glen Rovers man from the team for a number of Allianz League games. Horgan said that from his point of view there was no row or falling out with the management last year before he was benched.
“When you have fellas training three, four, five times a week, giving it their all, the least they deserve is probably a bit of encouragement. That’s exactly what’s happening at the moment. Horgan said that last year’s situation didn’t cast any shadow over his Championship top scorer heroics, moving out on his own ahead of Joe Canning after the mid-May win over Waterford.
