Early days yet but solid start from JBM and new-look Cork

Two questions exercised the minds of Cork fans leading up to this game.

Early days yet but solid start from JBM and new-look Cork

On a micro level they wondered how Seán Óg Ó hAilpín would do on his return from a year’s absence. On a macro level they wondered what effect Jimmy Barry-Murphy would have on Cork in 2012 – and about the portents for the future in comparison to the last few years.

If one were to judge on the first half alone the fans would be extremely happy, with positives on both fronts — Cork struck for three goals in the first half and I counted three other openings where they might have found the net but the final pass went astray.
