Wexford selector Cushe stands down after defeat to Clare

IN the aftermath of Wexford's elimination from the All-Ireland SHC, selector Ger Cushe has decided to stand down.

Wexford were bitterly disappointed following their defeat by Clare in last Sunday’s qualifier and the GAC’s decision to bring the game forward by one week, leaving just a one week break from their provincial final defeat to Kilkenny.

Cushe, part of the backroom team for the past two years, has decided to call it a day. A member of the 1996 All-Ireland winning team Cushe had huge influence on the players so his decision to step aside will come as a cruel blow.
