The one and only Martin Griffin. The real old style full back. Was only a nipper when I started watching him. rorysboys (Donegal) - Posts: 2671 - 21/03/2020 16:56:25 2274248 Link 0 |

Seamus and Mickey Quinn not related and from different clubs both key players on 1994 Connacht championship winning team and our only two all stars. Mickey Martin, Ollie Honeyman would have been there until the early 90,s and in more recent times John McKeon and Emlyn Mulligan were great players and back in 50's and 60's Cathal Flynn and the great Packy McGarty were respected footballers countrywide green.and.gold (Leitrim) - Posts: 427 - 21/03/2020 19:40:07 2274255 Link 0 |

Oh right, Donnacha Walsh for me, he always gave 100% and ran the hard yards so others could shine.

oh in that case it'd have to be the grey haired Garda back in the 70's you'd see hopping his move-along stick off the heads of the Whitehall Cider Mob on Hill 16 one week and then lining out for Meath the next

A very easy call. A club man who carried kids around the county on his bike at first. Then loaded 12 into his Morris minor. Played on goal for our football team at 50 when we could only barely field a team. Went and asked local farmers for a field to play in when we got bounced all over the place. When he retired and we got our own field used his little saving to buy a ride on mower to cut the grass. Cut the grass until his death at 84.
