Longford hurler weds his love match
Longford GAA county board chairperson Albert Cooney and hurling board chairperson Derek Fahy made a presentation to county hurler Karl Murray and his wife Rachel McLoughlin following Saturday's Allianz NHL Division 3A Round 4 encounter between Longford and Monaghan at Glennon Brothers Pearse Park.
Just a few days after Karl and Rachel walked down the aisle and were joined in matrimony, the Grattans clubman lined out at full back for the county hurlers.
However, Monaghan spoiled the post wedding celebrations by winning a frantic contest on a 1-20 to 3-13 score-line, a result that condemned Longford to relegation to Division 3B.
