Cork juniors burgled in UK

Cork’s junior footballers were left counting the cost of their All-Ireland semi-final trip to Manchester when thousands of euro worth of personal belongings were stolen from their dressing room.

The Rebels booked their place in the decider with victory over Lancashire but the celebrations were short lived when they discovered the theft of items including iPhones, wallets, cash, clothes, iPods and jewellery valued in the region of e3,000.

Greater Manchester Metropolitan Police and Cork officials are investigating the incident which occurred in the Old Bedian’s Grounds in the Manchester suburb of Didsbury.
