Todd happy getting everything ship shape

It’s far from a glamorous job managing a county ground in the lead-up to — and during — game day

Sometime before 11 tomorrow morning, Christy Todd will take a key to the side gate of O’Connor Park and begin his routine.

The former county secretary manages the Tullamore venue now and is helped in his duties by the caretaker. Both are only all too aware of the clocks going forward as much as the later 3pm throw-in between Offaly and Limerick will help.
