Clare hurler David Reidy had a rather robust — certainly, unorthodox — first encounter with new Banner manager Brian Lohan. Back in November 2016, University of Limerick, managed by Lohan, met Limerick Institute of Technology, for whom Reidy was midfield, in a third-level fixture. But once he put his hand on me, your natural reaction is to throw your hand back up onto his. So that was my first introduction to Brian Lohan,” Reidy, wearing a broad grin, recalls. “It’s tough on a dark, wet evening to go training, but I’m loving driving back to Clare for training.”
