Sparrow swoops for Clare selection post

Ex-Clare star Ger 'Sparrow' O'Loughlin has got the nod to replace John Minogue as Cyril Lyons' third selector.

Former All-Ireland winning captain Anthony Daly had been mooted to step up but he explained: "I wouldn't have time to do the two jobs, with the family, the pub, the shop, and I'm training young lads back in west Clare as well."
