Coolderry boss wants clubs to back Baker

COOLDERRY manager Ken Hogan has urged everyone in Offaly to get behind new hurling supremo Ollie Baker after his side retained their title for the first time since 1962/’63 following a tension filled final in O’Connor Park, Tullamore yesterday.

“Ollie has taken over and I wish him the very best of luck,” he said.

“There are tremendous hurlers in Offaly and I hope a county final like today will bring Offaly forward in big strides and I think we should be positive.”
