Re: Kevin Mckeever
Was that not the Shield or League Cup Final when Hegarty scored a winner in the top corner?

Re: Kevin Mckeever
It was the Irish News Cup. We were 3-0 down from the first leg, Sligo took the lead on the night and we then scored 5 to win 5-4 which included a rocket from 40 yards from Paul Hegarty, it might have been 20 yards but it gets further out as the years go by. There was only about 200-300 in the Brandy for the match

Re: Kevin Mckeever
Total gentleman, always said hello when passing & I remember a chat I had with him a few years ago it turned out he missed out in one trophy with us (think it was FAI Cup). If he'd won that he would've been the first player in history to win the LOI/IL, FAI/Irish Cup as well as both League Cups.
