The Cavan Minor team of 1959 recently held their 50-year anniversary
to commemorate their All Ireland final appearance of that year. Most
of the team are still alive, but one of the players, reported to be
dead in The Anglo Celt the previous week (info came from one of the
organisers, who was a team member) turned up at the function. Turns
out he was living as a wino, down and out for 40 odd years in London
and SOMEHOW got wind of the function and landed to it.
See if you can pick him out from the photos…
Classic!
haven’t laughed so much on my own, in years! cheers for that!
That’s great, what a legend.
