Charlie McGeever

"I had to get out of a hole, wash my hands and sign the form."

"On signing for Sligo Rovers in 1979."

"There was Patsy McGowan coming towards me, dapper dressed as always and a form in his hand."

"On the then Sligo Rovers manager."

"I was captain and we lost by two points to Monaghan. People said we lost it because we had a soccer midfield: myself and Denis Bonner, Packie's twin.""

"On playing Gaelic football for Donegal in the 1981 Ulster final."

"I played until I was 33 or 34 with one and a half legs."

"I managed to hold onto some performance with the knee in soccer having had two or three cruciates, whereas in Gaelic football it was a more difficult thing to do."

"Odhrán Mac Niallais didn't lick his talent off the table."

"In 2020, on the Donegal Gaelic footballer."

"[Charlie's] an awful man for answering his phone. I couldn't get in contact with him to get a challenge game... He [David Power] gave me the number, Charlie still didn't answer! If you know Charlie, he wouldn't be bothered. He'd just say I'm a low level guy - he only answers to a few of the big people, presidents of the US and that sort of thing."
