McCarthy tips Cork to come up trumps

FATHER TIME eventually caught up with Charlie McCarthy in 1980 after a career that spanned 15 years. But his interest in hurling has never waned.

In his county career, McCarthy amassed five All-Ireland SHC medals and captained Cork to victory in the third leg of their three-in-a-row in 1978.

The Barrs man, a selector with his club's senior team, will be an interested spectator as the All-Ireland champions meet the Munster champions at Semple Stadium on Sunday.
