Sport obsession cost Kerry star his marriage
“There is no doubt in my mind that it cost me my marriage, because I committed myself to the public and forgot about the family, especially the wife,” said Paudie O’Mahoney, 61, a father of three.
Paudie played football with Kerry from minor level in 1970 until retiring from the senior squad in 1982. The former keeper has five senior All-Ireland medals and the distinction of being the only senior inter-county goalkeeper to have gone through a senior championship without conceding a goal.
