@nathanmurf Great news, but you’ll be up against it. Many of the local radio stations provide great commentary and insight to games. Competition is great.

@Mulliganj I actually knew the lad but didn’t know he was a boxer. A very unassuming man. Condolences to everyone who loved him . RIP

It feels like Christmas is getting earlier every year. Decorations are up at Trends Bar in Salthill already and it’s only February 😂

@BarryMasterson @marcogoill It’s hanging in my office

@MissEims To get some sleep, play ‘white noise’ (I use Spotify) on a speaker. It’s not a cure, but it will give you comfort when you sleep.

Ironically, you can’t find match reports from any Friday night LOI games in Saturday’s Irish Independent printed newspapers but you can in all other Irish tabloids. The Indo does have reports from English games and Irish rugby clubs who play on Friday nights.

Eamonn Deacy spotted in the crowd at the first game at the newly redeveloped Terryland Park in 1994 (Galway United v Sligo Rovers). Eamonn died in 2012 aged 53. In 1994, the stadium was renamed in his honour. The Galway United player is @gbrett3

@GalwayUnitedFC Absolute class footballer. She will be sorely missed.

RT @BillyKelleherEU: I’ve decided to rename the North Atlantic Ocean.

@colmanos @rtenews @Richardwalshe

Live TV games need to be played at a different time or date to all of the rest of games so that the LOI community can watch the TV game without clashing with their own club. I’d love to watch Bohs v Rovers but not while my own club is playing. Maybe a TV game on a Thur or Mon?

Alan Murphy isn’t the first ex Galway United manager (excluding caretaker managers) to return to the club. Stephen Lally & Tommy Lally (no relation) were both managers of GUFC & both returned to join coaching staff. Paul McGee also rejoined but as a player.

@DroghedaUnited You planted a seed @Ruairi_Gucks

Interesting sign posted on the bus shelter at the bus stop for the Shuttle Bus at Shannon Airport.

Best LOI book I’ve ever read (even though there aren’t many). Dermot Keely was an absolute beast of a player as well being a very unconventional manager. Keely unapologetically throws some players & managers under the bus and he puts others up on a pedestal. .

I received a final warning letter from Fed Ex looking for payment of less than €100. There is no phone number or email on the letter which makes me suspicious. I run a small business. I’ve no idea what it’s in relation to. Is it a scam ?

@dannydarcy72 Up our side

I received a gift of this commemorative booklet in memory of Tommy Callaghan RIP., which has many colour photos of his football career & of his family. Tommy had an extensive football career with Celtic & was manager of Galway Rovers in 1978/79. We shall not see his like again

I found a passport on the road outside Trends Bar in Salthill on Christmas Eve. It belongs to Roan McDonald . Owner will be reunited with it once he answers a few security questions 😜 and his phone matches. I will hand it into Gardai Salthill if not reunited by 27 Dec.

Sad to hear of the passing of Mr. Joe Hanley. He became chairman of Galway United FC in 1985 and saved the club from extinction. Joe was a very decent man who had time for everyone and was a proud Galwegian. RIP Newspaper article from @CTribune 1985.
