Two goals for Terence Doherty for Derry at the Showgrounds tonight. Not bad for 17 years of age. Liam Kelly came on and looks like a real player. Just turned 16 in August. Thought he was excellent. A name to remember….. #loi

Feels like only yesterday. But it’s not! Acting all DJ (ish!) Happy Birthday @radiomidwest
On 24 July 1989, Midwest Radio made history as the first legal local radio station outside Dublin. The RTÉ Archives capture this landmark day for Mayo and Irish broadcasting that strengthened Mayo's voice and transformed Irish broadcasting More: rte.ie/archives/2019/0704/10…

Congrats to @gregallenRTE Richly deserved recognition for a broadcaster who makes it all sound effortless. Well done. 👏👏
The name on the trophy made this a particularly special evening. My sincere thanks to the Federation of Irish Sport and the Association of Sports in Ireland.

My sympathies to Michael’s family and to all in Mid West. Michael was a gentleman. Very sad news.
The death has taken place of Midwest Radio broadcaster and radio technician Michael Neary. A native of Milltown, Ballinlough Michael first joined Midwest Radio in 1985 – initially as a radio presenter – before combining his broadcasting skills with his technical abilities and played a central  role in the station’s technical department until 2010. After that, Michael continued to broadcast a variety of music programmes. He had an extraordinary knowledge and love of all genres of music and his very popular weekly Saturday morning Country Music programmes recorded huge listenership figures. Apart from music, his other main passion was agriculture and he hosted the weekly farming programme – Farming Matters – every Wednesday night for over 10 years here on Midwest Radio. Michael was also instrumental in bringing many memorable outside broadcasts to listeners.  He was the main engineer on Midwest Radios historic broadcast of Mass from the summit of Croagh Patrick in July 1989 and was responsible for the weekly broadcast of live Masses from various churches around the region for over two decades. Due to his incredible technical skills Midwest Radio delivered a range of programmes to listeners by way of live outside broadcasts ranging from sport events, election counts, festivals and protests. Michael’s talents were many, but it was his lovely personality and wit that will be best remembered by the many  who knew  and loved him. He is survived by his wife Pauline, and children Sharon, Brian and Elaine, his mother Josephine, sister Mary and brother John together with his extended family and friends. His remains will repose at Donnellan’s Funeral Home, Clare Street, Ballyhaunis on Saturday evening from 5pm to 7pm. Funeral will arrive to St. Patrick’s Church, Granlahan on Sunday for Mass at 12 o’clock, with burial afterwards in the local cemetery. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis

Had a great chat with the legendary Jim Dreaper today for @SatSportRTE I’ve always had an interest in the Arkle story. We also chatted about Brown Lad and Irish Grand National @Fairyhouse @RTEsport

A sad day for everyone connected with football with the news that Ireland's oldest person Josef Veselsky has passed away. A former director of @ShamrockRovers and VP of @UCDAFC , he was awarded the Special Merit award from SWI for his services to @LeagueofIreland in 2016. RIP

Looking into 2026, it’s hard to see how 2025 could be topped: Rory’s Masters odyssey & ascent to legend status; the ‘eagle has landed’ Irish Open drama; a febrile atmosphere and pulsating Ryder Cup victory. All in this RTE Radio Sport documentary made by Adrian Eames and myself…
