THERE had been speculation all morning, but it was confirmed this afternoon that Tommy Walsh is leaving the Kerry panel. It’s biggest news in Irish sport today so of course it got people typing on social media. Here is how people reacted on Twitter…
Tommy Walsh withdraws from @Kerry_Official football panel. Sometimes, for some reason, things don’t work out as we thought they would.

If Tommy Walsh has left the Kerry panel it’s a sad day he gave it his all & respect to him for not wanting to warm a bench for the summer

If Tommy Walsh has quit the @Kerry_Official panel, then Fitzmaurice has made a massive mistake. Serious player when given the chance

Tommy Walsh has left the Kerry panel. Shame, a lot was hoped for him on his return. Hope he goes back to enjoying football somewhere/how

No Tommy Walsh for Kerry GAA;his potential was great. Is it form, hamstring, getting the breaks or what? Memories of 09
