There son Liam,plays for albion number 4 shirt he is the engine that drives the team very skilful and has a hell of shot on him. They are a wonderful family a b d joy to be around.


Ormsby, Brendan Brendan had a stroke a few years back and it affected him quite badly. I went to a sportsman's evening in 2015 with Alan McInally that he attended and although not the same as before, he was fighting his way back. A genuine guy and deserving of so much respect for fighting back to where he is now.
