Lordan says Carrig can complete fairytale

FOR Carrigtwohill’s captain Brian Lordan, Sunday’s Cork SHC final is a far cry from the relegation battles of recent years.

From escaping the drop from top-flight hurling only a couple of years ago, Carrig are now 60 minutes from a first senior title since 1918.

“It’s a massive achievement to be in a county final, particularly after the couple of years we had in 2008 and 2009. They were real bad years for us, so 2011, a county final – some of us can’t believe it, it’s fantastic.”
