Bad break: Walsh set for watching brief in decider
The 37-year-old has been at the heart of Clonakilty’s football efforts this season yet a challenge match against Mid Kerry a week before the county semi-final in August brought his season to a shuddering halt. Walsh broke his ankle to smash any ambitions of future involvement in 2009. Yet Walsh’s mood remains upbeat ahead of Clonakilty’s county decider against St Finbarr’s next Sunday.
“It’s very disappointing, but as I’ve said to people, I got closure pretty much within five minutes of it happening. I’d be more disappointed if I had a hamstring injury or a calf injury, but I knew there was closure to it pretty much when it happened, so it’s not as hard as people would think. I’ve known now for the past four weeks that I’m not going to play.”
