English: They proved point

Having lost three finals, Clyda Rovers faced questions regarding their mental toughness, but they were answered emphatically, according to coach Ned English.

English, who saw his Duhallow side beaten in last year’s senior final, hailed the character displayed by Clyda to ensure that it was them in the winner’s enclosure.

“Well done to those lads out there, warriors every one of them,” he said.
