1969/70 Reunion

November 8, 2018

A great day was had by all at St. Mary’s Park in Convoy when the under 14 county champions of 1969/70 put on their boots once again and entertained the crowd. With their waist lines a little wider and the hair lines having receded somewhat they still managed to show that their football brains were intact. Remarkably the two team managers Danny Harkin and Ambrose Given were present on the day to inspire the troops as they were 40 years ago. Michael Cullen the referee was also present and threw in the ball to start the game which Joe O Donnell then refereed. The team were then presented with medals to mark the occasion and refreshments were had in the hall. Players present on Sunday were Sean Mailey, Danny Mailey, Liam Mc Conalogue, Jimmy Harte, Paddy Harte, Jimmy Cavanagh, Aidan Doherty, Gerard Monaghan, Eunan Brolly, Don Brolly, Robert Quinn, Austin Quinn, Brian Murray, Kevin Harkin, Mickey Sweeney, Hugo Toner, Seamus Mc Cafferty, Kevin Harkin, Thomas Gallagher and Hugh Kelly.
