EAMON MCGEE HAS been known to spend a little time on Twitter.
The Donegal defender announced his inter-county retirement yesterday in his own unique way and the tributes have flown the way of the Gweedore native.

A word on Eamon McGee. Dropped from Donegal panel by four different managers, and then came within whisker of man of match in All-Ireland.

Not many footballers played in Div 4 for London one year & won an All Ireland the next year. Eamon McGee has lived the entire Donegal story.

[adrotate group=”69″]It should never be forgotten that @EamonMcGee‘s greatest achievement was getting the word ”cloustering” into The Irish Times.

One of the great injustices in Gaa that @EamonMcGee never won an all-Star. Magnificent player and ambassador for Donegal. Enjoy retirement ☘
