O'Hara doubtful for Leitrim clash

April 01, 2005

Eamon O'Hara
New Sligo football manager Dominic Corrigan, who has seen his side struggle in this year's league campaign, may have to plan without Eamon O'Hara for the Connacht championship opener against Leitrim. The former All-Star could be ruled out of the side due to ligament damage sustained to his ankle during a training session recently. Manager Corrigan will be hoping that the Tourlestrane man will have recovered in time for that crunch tie, but the signs are not encouraging. O'Hara is definitely ruled out of this Sunday's league clash with Kildare and could be joined on the injury list by John McPartland, Brian Cullen and Adrian Marren, while Dara McGarty has only a slight chance of making the starting fifteen. Both Cullen and Marren sustained injuries during the U-21 clash against Galway last weekend and both could be ruled out for more than a month. It is expected that the team management will name the side after training on Friday night.
