Charlie
Harrison’s cruciate injury
Sligo will be forced to operate without the services of All Star defender, Charlie Harrison for the rest of the season after it was confirmed that the St John’s clubman had suffered a cruciate knee ligament injury.
The injury occurred in training two weeks ago and results of a subsequent scan have confirmed the player’s worst fears.It comes as a blow to Sligo under new manager Niall Carew as they have begun to get their act together after a slow start to the season, thanks to the return of some key players who had endured injury lay-offs.
Harrison actually made his inter-county debut with London in 2004 but was soon a regular for Sligo, starring as the Yeatsmen won the Connacht championship in 2007 – the county’s first in 32 years.In 2010, he became just the fourth Sligo player to win an All Star, when he was rewarded for a series of outstanding performances at corner-back.
Everybody in the St. John’s club would like to wish Charlie a full and speedy recovery.
