Civil War put on hold

The Walsh brothers will miss out on the dubious honour of playing against each other in the Wicklow Carlow game this week.
Thomas Walsh transferred to Wicklow a year ago from his native county but brother Patrick misses the game due to picking up a red card last day out.
It’s not often you get brothers going toe to toe in Gaelic football at either club or county level, it’s almost akin to Civil War given the fierce loyalties in the GAA to your local area.
It’s a pity the duel won’t now take place as it might have added a bit of spice to an otherwise meaningless game.
