Ronan Clarke's recovery 'has taken a small step in the right direction'

All-Ireland winner was hospitalised following a collision with a goalpost.

SERIOUSLY INJURED ARMAGH forward Ronan Clarke “has taken a small step in the right direction” in his recovery.

The two-time Allstar sustained a head injury after colliding with a goalpost during a club game and was hospitalised in intensive care.

“We can update that there has been an improvement in his condition,” the Armagh county board wrote on Facebook on Tuesday evening.

He’s still not out of the woods and continues to need your prayers, but he has taken a small step in the right direction.

“His family have been made aware of the thousands of people, not only from Armagh and indeed Ireland, but from right across the world that have sent messages of support and best wishes.

“To everyone that has taken the time to send those, his family are eternally grateful.”

Clarke won the All-Ireland football title with Armagh in 2002 and was twice named an Allstar.
