An emotional Mícheál Ó Sé has paid tribute to his great friend Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh as “the best known man in the land” with “magic in his voice” upon his passing at the age of 93 earlier today.

Often working at the same games, the former Raidió na Gaeltachta broadcaster Ó Sé travelled with his fellow West Kerry man Ó Muircheartaigh to games across the country as well as places like Cheltenham and Australia.
