Offaly greats make winning return

April 19, 2015

Former Offaly great Johnny Pilkington will be hoping for a return of the glory days to Birr.

Daithi Regan and Johnny Pilkington came out of retirement today to help Birr's third team to a winning start in the Offaly JHC.

The former Offaly and Birr All-Ireland winners, who are a combined age of 92, played their part in Birr's victory over Gracefield at St. Brendan's Park.

For well-known hurling pundit Regan, it was a first appearance in the red and green in 15 years.

Fair play to ye lads!
