Brolly seeks live donor for friend after failed kidney op

All-Ireland winner and GAA pundit Joe Brolly has urged a big-hearted person to donate a kidney to the friend he tried — and failed — to save.

Speaking after last month’s harrowing experience when the 43-year-old analyst was told his kidney transplant to Shane Finnegan had not worked, the Derry legend said all was not lost.

While accepting the “very high stakes” for Mr Finnegan, a 40-year-old Belfast PR executive and father-of-three, Mr Brolly insisted he still believes his friend will survive.
