“On behalf of Roscommon GAA I wish to thank Conor for his dedication and commitment to Roscommon GAA” said Roscommon GAA Chairperson, Brian Carroll.

“Conor's skill and flare on the pitch was very evident from a young age and that magical left foot lit up many of the 117 games that Conor played in for the primrose and blue”.

“I wish Conor and his family the very best of luck in the future and I also wish to thank Conor's club Kilbride for all their work developing Conor from a young age into the fine footballer he was.”
