The moment Sean McAllister sealed a famous first away win in Europe for @DgnSwifts 🤩
A deserved win for the Swifts on their return to European football. Incredible way to do it. 👏👏👏
Sean McAllister. Thats it. That's the post. #UECL #VADDUN
Thrilled to have been asked to provide commentary for @DgnSwifts return to the European stage, especially having had the privilege of calling their Irish Cup triumph in May. A stern test in Liechtenstein awaits Rodney McAree's men tomorrow night. solidsport.com/dunagannon-swi…

Ended up on a late night binge of @Tim_Mc_Garry's #GiveMyHead podcast. Originally planned to watch new ep with David Jeffrey but when they referenced Jim Magilton was on it before I found myself searching for that straight after. Hopefully more Irish League guests in future? 👀

My first game of the new campaign ended in heartbreak for @cliftonvillefc, including defender Jack Keaney who joined me on commentary. However, for a moment, the 10 men had everyone believing as they edged in front with a move involving two overhead kicks...
A very disappointing night at Solitude where the Reds task was made that much harder by a poor refereeing decision and yet still they nearly won it late on - Falls denied by a great save. St. Joseph's now unbeaten in 4 v NI sides (W2, D2) and face Shamrock Rovers in next round.
Basketball NI say that CJ's success proves that "local pathways can lead to global stages." 🏀🌎 A powerful thought that will be used to inspire future generations.
The moment CJ Fulton created history for Irish basketball ☘️ The boy from Belfast becomes the first player developed in Ireland to play for an NBA team, the Minnesota Timberwolves 👊 Remember the moment ⏳ #Greenmeansgo ☘️ | #IrishBasketball
Solitude should be rocking tomorrow night as the Reds aim to advance in the #UECL and I'll be there on commentary for their clash with St. Joseph's. Shamrock Rovers await the winners. 👀
🎥 LIVE STREAM If you missed out on a ticket for tomorrow night's sold-out showdown, you can still follow the action and roar the Reds on from wherever you are in the world. ➡️ cliftonvillefc.net/2025/07/16/vis…
Shels through and were the better side over 2 legs. Linfield fans will wonder 'what if' as they look back on two big chances missed at key times but I also thought the visitors were wasteful. Blues play Zalgiris next week who were dumped out of UCL by Hamrun Spartans on pens.
Not good for the nerves but some effort by @larnefc in Riga. Fought back from behind twice to eventually prevail on penalties! The journey continues...👏

Pleased to join Irish League forward Johnny McMurray as the latest guest on his new 'On The Spot' football podcast, which will be released this Friday. Fun to be on the other side of an interview for a change 😅
In what should be the happiest time of his life, with the birth of his daughter just before Christmas and recent wedding celebrations on top of success for club and country, tragedy strikes. May Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva rest in peace.

Today officially marks 1 full year of being my own boss and it has been memorable. From making my reporting debuts for 5 Live and TNT Sports, to presenting Sportsound and working on my first Irish Cup final. Thanks to everyone who has supported me. The best is yet to come! 🙌

It's a testament to his character that Jonny Evans has been asked to play a key role in moulding the development of young players at #MUFC. Wishing him every success in this next chapter of his career. manutd.com/en/news/detail…
Been in #Vienna since Tuesday and it's such an impressive city. Enjoying the music, history and gothic architecture. 🇦🇹
