IT’S BEEN QUITE the week for Antrim footballer Matthew Fitzpatrick.
Yesterday it transpired that Joe Brolly helped the forward beat a 48-week suspension handed down by the GAA on Monday.
Tonight he’s been selected to lead the Saffrons attack from centre-forward for their Ulster opener against Donegal on Sunday.
Antrim skipper James Laverty misses out through injury. Joint-managers Gearoid Adams and Frank Fitzsimons have named their side, with influential attacker CJ McGourty starting at corner-forward.
