Clarecastle crowned lords of the mud dance
Wexford’s All-Ireland winning manager won a couple of Clare county senior titles with Newmarket, but had he been in Ennis for yesterday’s 2005 decider, he might have put a little rider on that celebrated proclamation.
The Riverdance of Sport, yes, provided the conditions are kind. It’s late October, we’ve just had a week of torrential rain and there was a curtain-raiser (the Clare senior B final, and congratulations to the Forde-backed Ogonelloe on their win). Not even the famed Cusack Park sod could withstand such an onslaught.
