Midleton CBS hope to extend Thurles’ wait for Harty success

HALF a century has passed since Thurles CBS last won the Dr Harty Cup - and how they hope to break that unenviable record this year.

Last season they lost to St Flannan’s by a couple of points in the decider. The Clare side are already back in the final and this afternoon Thurles, with nine of last year’s squad, can join them if they overcome Midleton CBS in Fermoy (2.30pm)

Thurles have shown great form to reach today’s semi final, scoring freely in all their games, including a hard-fought derby win over Our Lady’s.
