Dream comes true for Irish fans after generous donation by Seamus Coleman

"To have received such a generous donation from one of our own, Seamus Coleman, shows the measure of the man…"

Two Irish Evertonians finally lived out their dream as they were invited to Goodison Park to watch the Blues defeat West Ham United and meet Seamus Coleman - the man who made it all possible.

The story of Eoin Mulligan and friend Francis Conmey from Athlone - and their shared passion for Everton - went viral earlier this year with the pair initially raising enough money to bring them to Merseyside for the Club’s Europa League qualifier with Hajduk Split.
