Before I led the Clarecastle team out at half-time of yesterday’s Clare county final, to collect our 25-year anniversary plaques, somebody handed me the 1994 county final programme. Ger was the spiritual leader of that young St Joseph’s team. We were raging hot favourites to win that county final but Joseph’s pushed us to the wire. That St Joseph’s team went on to beat the ‘Bridge in two county finals but they rarely lose on the big day in Clare. As soon as we finished, the Clare team would take up their slot from 9-10.30pm.
