Miltown v Ballyfin - Over 40s

Hennessy Park will take a trip back in time on Saturday, as the over 40s from Miltown take on Laois side Ballyfin in a charity game. Many famous names and some not so famous, will take to the field to give an exhibition of football or make an exhibition of themselves possibly.
There will be huge anticipation as names like Joe Cullen, Martin Curtin, Martin Flynn and Gerry Curtin grace the hallow turf for one more time. We all hope, of course, that Noel Curtin manages not to clatter anyone before the ball is thrown in.
The highlight of the day will definitely be the possibility of catching a glimpse of Malty strutting his stuff on the pitch, I wonder if he'll have his phone on him during the match. We've all heard great tales of his football past, from him mainly, so Saturday will be a chance for us all to experience it first hand.

So come along on Saturday and cheers on the lads, one more time!!!!
