Hi Folks
talibim, you are quick of the mark, was going to post that up
.
This might also interest some of you.
A local guy and a Drog supporter colleague Brian Whelan has written a book on the History of Drogheda United F.C. titled 'DUFC, A Claret and Blue History'.
The book is a nostalgic look back through the history of Drogheda United Football Club, told through the words of those who played for, managed, administered, and have supported the club. Just some of those who were interviewed include; Charlie Hurley, Vincent Hoey, Liam Cullen, Mick Fairclough, 'Gel' Martin, Damien Byrne, Richie Kelly, Harry McCue, Andy Myler, Graham Gartland, Dan Connor...the list is endless.
A friend of Brian’s, Liam Keegan, who was an avid Drogheda United supporter, died from cancer in 2003. All the proceeds from the book sales are being donated to the Gary Kelly Cancer Support Centre, who helped Liam’s family through the tough time of their lives.
The book is being lunched Thursday 09/09/2010 at 8pm in the Westcourt Hotel (The hotel where there is a plague commemorating Turkey for their help during the famine).
The Turkish Consul is coming down from the Turkish Embassy for the launch.
Time to get out my Trabzonspor scarf out for a few photos.
