Mulholland
returns to county squad - 05/01/03
Ballyholland forward Shane Mulholland
has returned to the Down set-up after talks with Paddy O'Rourke.
When O'Rourke originally announced the Down panel before
Christmas Mulholland failed to make the cut.
O'Rourke confirmed that the Ballyholland
clubman had returned to training in recent weeks and is
getting his fitness levels back. Mulholland who a few years
ago was regarded as one of the brightest young rising stars
in Gaelic football last appeared in the red and black jersey
against Armagh at Casement Park in the All-Ireland qualifiers
two summers ago. After that he wasn't in the plans of former
Down boss, Peter McGrath after he could not attend pre-Christmas
training last season because of heavy work commitments and
soon found himself out in the cold.
Mulholland will be hoping that this latest
return will kick-start his inter-county career and that
he will get a run out in Down's two remaining league games
after Sunday clash with Cavan in Newry - against Meath and
Kildare.
Shane could provide the present Down side
with some much-needed experience if he regains his fitness.
