Gweedore Celtic host fund-raising match to aid local man’s MS fight

Married to Bríd, the Colls have three young children and the Gweedore Celtic club has stepped up to organise a friendly game to raise much-needed funds.

This Monday, December 28^th, at 1pm at An Screaban Hugh Rua Gallagher’s Gweedore Celtic senior team will take on the Derry City under-19s, the 2015 Foyle Cup winners who competed in the SSE Airtricity Under-19 League this season.
