A huge blow for Brian Lohan who will be plotting to win back the Liam McCarthy cup I’m 2026.
McCarthy was a vital cog as Clare scaled the All-Ireland SHC summit in 2024 with the Inagh/Kilnamona attacker taking up free-taking responsilities to great effect on their way to Liam McCarthy Cup success.
Won’t be long now till the new season gets underway and we can’t wait to see who’s going to be looking good. Munster again this year will be a battle field and hard to get out.
Who do you fancy to lift Liam this year?
thats hard for claree
