Former Antrim footballer Frankie Wilson has died at the age of 52 after a battle with cancer.

A brilliant bloke on and off the pitch, he packed so much into his life.. RIP Frankie

Was reading Twitter messages last night and he seems to have played for and coached a serious number of clubs and schools across GAA and soccer. He didn't half pack it all in.

I know Frank through his brother and sister, so knew about his sports involvement, but didn't appreciate how widespread it was. Wouldn't it be brilliant if we all had even a fraction of the impact he had on young people in sport.

Old enough to remember it at the time (even though I was 5). Very little football on TV at time, so in my memory. Hugely shocking result in a game played on a ploughed field.

Vicky Phelan. An extraordinary person RIP. She should be Tony Holohan's legacy.

Rip She was definitely an extraordinary person.

It's bizarre that Tony Holohan was awarded the freedom of Dublin in 2021. It shows people's remarkable ability to whitewash certain unpleasant events.
