Hero: Jnr McManus 90,Derek Duggan 91,Gerry lohan 01,Donie Shine 10 without them those years we wouldn't have won Connacht.

Villain: Seamus Prior he cost us a Connacht title in 1998 and Tommy Carr,John Maughan even today we still trying to recover from those management appointments.

Everyone prefers hearing about the villains though don't they? Mine would be:
Graham Geragthy, Conor Gormley, Ryan McMenimem(Sorry for that spelling), Ciaran Whelan when he was a player, Ger Brennan, Diarmuid Connolly, Seanie Johnson and Noel O'Leary

Heroes , so many. Graham geraghty, Trevor Giles, Darren fay,john mcMcDermott, Robbie o malley , Gerry mcentee , and on and on. But the 2 stand out players jack Quinn and player of the millennium the great unequalled martin O'Connell.

Villains , Pauric Joyce, Larry Tompkins, Jimmy keaveney ,

My own county heroes . I'll leave this at just one the greatest manager that there has ever been or ever will be, the undisputed god of football. Sean Boylan. It could be no one else.

How come? Curious why you'd dislike players from your own county.

I'm surprised by your choice of Villian, ok star has gone off the boil, but big Mike was never going to be a superstar, he had a job to do and he did it always in my opinion, just come in catch and pass it on, if you were present in Tullamore against Antrim in 2009 I don't think you would have classed big mike as a Villain? he came on that day and caught several balls when the matter counted....

Villians: Larry Tompkins, Shay Fahy, Billy Sheehan, Carl O'Dwyer, Declan Darcy, Seanie Johnson.... see a trend here?

How can you leave out Dermot Earley and Tony McManus, two of the finest footballers to come out of Connaught?

A bit harsh on Declan Darcy maybe? He did/does have a genuine family attachment to Leitrim.

Good call tyroneed with the villain. Kennelly for a man that has played so little senior football has contributed and continues to contribute so much negativity.
