Clare secretary Pat Fitzgerald has claimed he is the subject of a ‘witch-hunt’ as the Caherlohan Centre of Excellence was again the subject of criticism at this week’s online county board meeting.

Exasperated with conjecture about the cost of the pitches at Clare GAA’s training base and twice explaining the playing surfaces were not sand-based, Fitzgerald called on delegates to provide him with the amount spent but no figure was forthcoming.
