No Bridge too far for old warrior Gilligan

CLARE SHC FINAL:

He’s 37, has been retired from the senior inter-county scene for four years, but Niall is still lighting up the club scene. He was man of the match as the Bridge edged past 2008 champions Clonlara in a low-scoring semi-final a couple of weeks ago.

Given his continuing good form it’s only natural that Niall would harbour a few regrets about this year, a spectator as a young Clare side powered their way to the All-Ireland title.
