Perseverance paid off for Meath Hill's Emmet Boyle at Pairc Tailteann yesterday.
After years of dedication to the north Meath club's cause, the long-serving 47-year-old finally got his hands on a JFC medal.
21 years ago he was full-forward on the team that lost out to parish rivals Drumconrath but he donned the number 28 jersey for yesterday's 1-12 to 0-9 victory over Moylagh.
It was worth the wait as our picture shows how much the success meant to him and his team-mates!
