Minogue bidding to raise bruised Banner spirits

AFTER the dejection of Saturday night’s All-Ireland qualifier loss, Clare hurling looks to get back on track at Cusack Park, Ennis tonight (7.30pm) with the Bord Gáis Energy Munster U21 HC semi-final against Limerick.

Clare boss John Minogue accepts that plenty supporters will be looking to his charges to resurrect the county’s hurling fortunes after the senior side were emphatically dumped out of the championship by Galway.

“Those supporters leaving Cusack Park last Saturday were very unhappy, both result-wise and weather-wise. They’ll be looking forward to a lift from this game.”
