Promotion not 'end of the world' for Clare, says Davy Fitzgerald

Clare manager Davy Fitzgerald said promotion to the top flight in the national league is not as vital as many people think.

His side host Limerick in a winner-takes-all Division 1B clash at revamped Cusack Park next Sunday when the victors will win promotion.

But Fitzgerald, whose side was relegated last season after winning just one of their five games, said featuring in the top flight was not all it was cracked up to be and that a team can possibly prepare better for the championship outside the top tier.
