Sad news about a great friend & colleague from Daily Express days, Steve Nolan, who passed away yesterday. For 30 years Steve edited the sports pages at the Express group of newspapers. He was encouraging, discerning, quietly authoritative & most of all a really good guy.

The voice. The passion. The magic. The joy. The abundant joy! Days of summer & All-Ireland finals & the radio 📻 & unique commentary that fuelled our youth, our dreams, our passion for games when all was fresh & green. Micheál #ÓMuircheartaigh died today. A man & voice nonpareil.
