Mikey Sheehy- the greatest goalscorer in Kerry football.

The GAA Social

Available for over a year

He's hit the net more than any Kerry player in history. His accolades are outstanding. Clifford is chasing him down, but hasn't caught him yet. With club and County, Mikey Sheehy achieved it all. One of the greatest Gaelic footballers of all time. This is his life, his story and and what he's learned along the way. The Ups of success, the downs of missing a penalty in the 1982 All-Ireland final against Offaly. The day the dream for five died. The close connection to the Dublin team, growing up and his take on this current Kerry team. His admiration for Mick O'Dwyer and who is the greatest of them all? The great Mikey Sheehy (and Cara, the most well behaved grandchild in the world) on the GAA Social. Lovely
