Striker’s resurgence at Tolka Park has been far from plain sailing.
David Sneyd SEAN BOYD HAD a League of Ireland winners’ medal around his neck and a bottle of Heineken stuffed in his right sock as he began to reflect on the greatest moment in his career.
If you are very, very lucky there will be times like this in your career. Not just winning the league, the first at Tolka Park since 2006, but being part of something that is more than football and being able to pick up a wage. He’d been in the First Division with Finn Harps before that and had to fight to salvage any kind of career when he suffered a cruciate knee ligament injury while out of contract and trying to earn a new club with PFA Ireland.
No one who has seen Boyd play will be surprised to learn he has locked horns with Duff. Shels fans love him because every other set of supporters hate him. Aggressive and confrontational with a bad habit of either scoring important goals and helping to set them up.
