Roscommon benefactor named

Castlerea businessman John Murphy has been confirmed as the mystery man who has pledged to dig the Roscommon county board out of their current financial debt.

Roscommon GAA is haemorrhaging to the tune of €1.4m at present but millionaire Murphy, who has made his fortune in the construction industry, has stepped into the breach with an interest-free loan deal of €1m to rescue the board.
