LEGENDARY FORMER MEATH boss Sean Boylan has been lauded for his contribution in helping DCU reach tomorrow’s Sigerson Cup final.
Long-serving DCU manager Niall Moyna roped in Boylan as part of his management team this year.
The addition has helped DCU after they picked up victories in Belfast over Jordanstown and St Mary’s before yesterday’s dramatic semi-final win over UCD
And Moyna has heaped praise upon the role played by the four-time All-Ireland senior winning manager.
“I couldn’t put it into words. Just to have the man in the dressing room, his knowledge, his experience. I’ve met a lot of sportspeople and been around sport a long time, I’ve learned so much from him in just three months. He’s a gentleman and we’re thrilled to have him.”
Moyna also highlighted the character of his DCU players after they bagged 1-1 in injury-time to claim a three-point win over their opponents. Despite being outplayed in the second-half, DCU emerged with the spoils at the finish.
“This team finds a way. There’s great character in the team. We had a bit of luck today but those are the vagaries of sport. We’ll take the louck any way we can get it.”

Last of the United greats
@John Harte: that header at stoke
@John Harte: A very likeable player.
Staying and scoring 40 goal’s is that before, during or after the tantrum ‘s?
On Fergie, no other Utd manager will get the same disproportionate financial advantage as Fergie had. He robbed Villa and Spurs of their best player’s. With all the money all PL club’s get that advantage has been eroded. Furthermore, the top 4 all get greater money in CL qualification than available 10 year’s ago. Therefore, if Utd can’t qualify the financial advantage they used to have gets eroded even further. The problem is the expectation of their fan’s versus the new reality.
@Daniel Kelly: you are talking absolutely bs, 1st regards taking villa/spurs best players jesus you would think utd absolutely drained them throughout the years, Sheringham, berbatov,Carrick,Yorke with villa, who else?? That’s in nearly 25yrs..To this day all the top clubs have and are still buying the best players from the lesser clubs it has always happened and yes champions lge money helps give your head a good wobble there its not as if fergie or utd created this..
@Pauly Kel: Just like Big Jack Charlton had the best crop of Irish player’s ever…. Fergie had a financial stranglehold on the PL with revenues exceeding all other club’s. He plundered the above plus West Ham, Leeds, Forrest, Wigan et al for their best player’s. My point stands Kane ain’t swapping Spurs now for old toilet! Thanks for listening……
He is still there!
