Wexford riding on a wave of goodwill

Lee Chin is anticipating a sizeable Wexford crowd at Nowlan Park this weekend — but he won’t forget the diehards who cheered them on in Ennis last Saturday week.

Wexford Park was packed with over 15,000 souls for Saturday’s qualifier win over Clare, a vast improvement on the numbers who travelled to see them almost beat the All-Ireland champions at the first time of asking.

And now the feelgood factor is coursing through the county as they attempt to beat Waterford and reach an All-Ireland quarter-final against Limerick on Sunday week.
