Eamonn Deacy - RIP

[Ger Regan]

I'd certainly be up for that as well. Being the local I'd be able to recommend decent boozers et. Once a date we'll take it from there I suppose.

[dave shelley]

I'd be keen too, please keep me updated. Thanks.

I will come over for that

[Ger Regan]

For anyone interested, just get in touch and I can look into accommodation for you. Have a couple of contacts that can often get me good deals on hotels.

So I was speaking with my neighbour, who is organising the Villa legends v Galway select game, and it's pencilled in for the 18th of August. As I said, anyone who is interested in coming over, get in touch and I'll give you some tips for accommodation etc.

Looking forward to it.

Need to look at fixtures for next season before I confirm owt.

[eamonn]

That will be likely the first day of next season, right? Or the second weekend of next season should things go Pete Tong over the next few weeks. Either way, should be able to make it.

Just found out some more info on this. Definitely on the 18th, with kick off at 6pm. Ron Saunders will be in attendance.

Just said I'd let you all know that Chick's family placed a notice in a couple of the local papers thanking everyone for their support. They thanked H&V for the floral tribute and donation to Acorns.

I am chuffed this game is going ahead. It is a great way to remember Eamon and will hopefully generate a few decent memories for the Galway team and raise Villa's profile in the west of Ireland.

[Ger Regan]

Good news that it coincides with an away game, hopefully a few will make it over for it.

I'd just like to add that last week/weekend I was in Szczecin, Poland for a wedding between an Irishman from Galway and his Polish fiance. When the inevitable talk got round to football, the family that were over from those parts all spoke of Mr Deacy in glowing terms, especially his humility and contributions to local charities etc.

I had the alcoholic fears and sweats at the airport on Sunday, thanks to them.

[gervilla]

Hmmmmm.
We got a hotel voucher as a wedding present and the good lady wife fancys a weekend in Galway...in August.
Is it defiantly still on ?
