Afternoon deluge forced late postponement of Waterford-Clare clash, says Munster GAA

Clare minor boss Brian O’Connell said his team had been on the road from 1.30pm on Tuesday and that the decision to postpone should 'have been made earlier'

APRIL MISERY: The unseasonably wet weather forced the late postponement of the MHC game Tuesday between Waterford and Clare.

Munster GAA have expressed regret at the inconvenience caused by the postponement of Tuesday’s Waterford-Clare Munster MHC game at Fraher Field, Dungarvan just 12 minutes before throw-in.

The eleventh-hour decision to postpone the provincial round-robin fixture was taken while both teams went through their respective warm-ups on the waterlogged pitch.
