Former Armagh star Ronan Clarke remained in intensive care last night, but his condition is said to be improving after he suffered a serious head injury in a club game on Friday night.
The 2002 All-Ireland winning full forward and two-time All Star is being treated at Craigavon Hospital after colliding with a goalpost while playing for Pearse Og against Maghery in the Armagh SFC.
The 32-year-old has received thousands of well wishes from the GAA community since news of his condition emerged yesterday.
We wish our former senior footballer and Pearse Óg clubman Ronan Clarke a speedy recovery from an injury he picked up last night.
