A 67 Year Old Manager Needs A Goalkeeper - There's Only One Thing To Do

Tommy Walsh told RTE on the night of the 2012 All-Ireland final replay that his father had played for Tullaroan until the age of 48 and it was his intention to do likewise.

However, we saw yesterday that it's possible to go on much longer than that.

Johnny McEvoy, the manager of the Clonad junior hurlers in Laois needed a goalkeeper. Refusing to let his 67 years or the fact that he was a minor back in the mid-1960s deter him, he stood in for the whole game. CLonad ememrged victorious by two point.
