Damian O'Hagan - A school boy destined for greatness
Ronan in conversation with Damian O'Hagan that goes right back to their days in Primary school when he was taken out of class to play with the big boys on the school team.
An incredible underage footballer and athlete , Damian recalls a career, now into its sixth decade, that includes playing in an All Ireland final when he was 15 and becoming a household name collecting club and county championship medals and a prestigious All Star along the way. And to think he could have played for the Rahillys and Cork!... luckily for Coalisland and Tyrone he starred for the Fianna and the O'Neill county.
Perhaps he was destined to do great things as his late father Joe Joe, a GAA legend, was his mentor and inspiration.
At management level he went on to guide the Fianna to underage and senior county and provincial glory and is back at the helm again.
Through successes and disappointments his passion for football has never diminished
Damian recalls many he met on the journey and makes peace with Ronan for that black eye!
