O’Connor injury doubt for champions Newtown

JERRY O’CONNOR remains a doubtful starter for champions Newtownshandrum in Sunday’s permanent TSB Cork senior hurling semi-final against Cloyne because of a recurring hamstring problem.

In London yesterday with brother Ben, along with the Meehan brothers Michael and Noel for the launch of the 2005 AIB club championships, Jerry admitted his chances were slim.

“I would not want to be playing if I am not right,” he said.
