Unless i have missed or cant find it on here but i cant believe that there hasnt been any post paying tribute to the great man from castleisland - he was a genius with the pen when it came to reporting on all sports but Gaelic Games in particular - had the pleasure of talking to him as we walked our way out of town to Fitzgearld Stadium in Killarney for the munster final replay in 1987 - he always watched the games from the terraces - no corporate boxes for Con !!!
He will be hugely missed - certain to say that we wont see his likes again.

We have a search faciliity. Use it, before jumping to conclusions. Within a minute of his death being announced, we had a tribute topic here. I am closing this topic.
