Kerry football manager Jack O'Connor has moved quickly to play down talk of a grudge match ahead of Sunday's clash with Westmeath.

Kerry football manager Jack O'Connor has moved quickly to play down talk of a grudge match ahead of Sunday's clash with Westmeath.

O'Connor took over the Kingdom job last year after Ó Se was axed by county board chiefs, subsequently taking up the position at Westmeath.

They meet in Div 1A this Sunday but O'Connor said: "It does not matter who is managing Westmeath. We just want to go up and give a good account of ourselves. That is the bottom line.”
