A video clip showing Davy Fitzgerald’s Limerick IT in an angry confrontation with members of DCU Dóchas Éireann’s management has surfaced online – and it’s not for the easily offended, but it’s not anything you wouldn’t see at a GAA game any Sunday.

DCU beat Davy Fitz’s Limerick IT 3-15 to 2-17 in the Fitzgibbon Cup in Moylish on Monday night, with the Glasnevin college springing a surprise to mark themselves out as a force to be reckoned with.

And it looks as if Fitzgerald was in no mood for niceties at the full-time whistle.

A 25-second clip, uploaded by YouTube user Slippery Dodger, appears to capture an extremely foul-mouthed exchange between Davy and his counterparts.

It’s unclear who exactly he is having words with, but it’s crystal clear that both teams have some rather strong opinions of each other in that moment.

Meanwhile, IT Carlow beat NUI Galway while Mary I overcame Trinity College in Thursday’s Fitzgibbon Cup matches.

Carlow fared better in the adverse weather conditions in Dangan while reigning champions Mary I secured an eight-point win over a spirited Trinity side, setting up a clash with NUIG next Thursday.
