Best of the west: More than bragging rights at stake between Bandon and Newcestown

The prize at stake on the afternoon of that 1991 clash in Ballinascarthy was the Carbery junior title. For the winners this evening, there is a place in the last eight of the SHC.

Both Bandon and Newcestown have covered some amount of road since their last hurling championship meeting 27 years ago. The prize at stake on the afternoon of that 1991 clash in Ballinascarthy was the Carbery junior title. For the winners this evening, there is a place in the last eight of the SHC.

Newcestown manager Jim O’Sullivan lined out at right-half-back in that most recent meeting, a game they were fortunate to edge on a scoreline of 2-10 to 4-3. Bandon’s Paddy Cahalane, father of current Cork senior Michael, had a late free stopped on the goal-line while the subsequent ‘65 was sent wide.
