Anthony Daly: 'Maybe we were just a bit madder and wilder back in our time'

The 1995 Clare team.

In October 1996, Clare travelled to Belfast for the official opening of the Patrick Sarsfields club’s new pitch on Stewartstown Avenue, a two-day event, based around a challenge game against Antrim on the Sunday.

We flew up from Shannon on the Saturday at 7.30am, arriving into the clubhouse just after 10. They had breakfast laid on for us, a huge fry, which we intended to wash down with pots of tea and pints of water.
