There aren’t too many men who have created a sporting legend at Páirc Uí Rinn, Turner’s Cross and Musgrave Park. Perhaps former Cork City manager Noel O’Mahony, who died on Thursday night at the age of 73, is the only one.

The death has taken place of Seamus Coughlan, a member of Cork’s All-Ireland winning senior football team of 1973.

The former taoiseach, Bertie Ahern, was one of the hundreds of members of the Fianna Fáil party who attended the removal of Micheál Martin’s father, Paddy Martin, last night.

The man responsible for starting Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin on his political career died yesterday afternoon.

THE funeral will take place on Monday of Eileen Martin, the mother of Foreign Affairs Minister Micheál Martin TD, who died yesterday.
