O’Loughlin says victory vital for Banner’s future

CLARE manager Ger O’Loughlin believes the result of this evening’s Allianz Division 2 final with Limerick could have a major bearing on his players staying in Ireland.

The Clarecastle man has “three or four players in limbo at the moment with regard to work” and there are plans afoot to organise jobs for them over the summer.

However, he is concerned a second season in Division 2 could convince some players to emigrate.
