Shay Given on the Tommy Tiernan Show

Retired goalkeeper Shay Given spoke on the Tommy Tiernan Show about how his mother’s death when he was four impacted his life and also opened up about the loss of his brother last December.

“I get emotional when I talk about her, even now,” he said of his mother. He said he and his five siblings “just had to get on with it” and “never really got to speak about it” when they were young.
