Republic of Ireland and Celtic legend Packie Bonner was on hand as a seat was unveiled at the Oldtown in Letterkenny last night in memory of well-known local man and former Letterkenny Rovers official John Gorey Curran.
The bench takes pride of place at the Old Town Bridge, close to Gorey’s beloved homeplace.
Family, friends and soccer pals turned out to mark the occasion. Watch here:
Gorey, who served on the Executive Council of the FAI Youth Council, was a steadfast campaigner for opportunities for young players from the North West. The John Gorey Curran Youth Cup is played each season in his honour.
