Time for Rory to celebrate with the ‘pigeon dance’
ON another day to forget for Fermanagh, it was at least great to see Derry manager, our own Rory Gallagher, enjoying himself so much on the sideline as each of his team’s goals went in. In fact, the ex-Fermanagh boss celebrated the third goal so wildly that for the rest of the match, members of St John’s […]
