Davy Fitz Expected To Make A Statement

Confirmation of Davy Fitzgerald's departure as Clare hurling manager is likely within the next 48 hours.

The County Board last night held talks with Fitzgerald, following widespread reports he was about to end his five-year term in charge. The 2013 All Ireland-winning manager is currently holidaying in the U-S, but is expected to make an announcement on his future in the coming days.
