Moynalvey GFC

Shock and sadness descended upon Moyna­lvey/Kiltale early Friday morning with news of the sudden pa­ssing of one of Moyn­alvey’s finest footb­allers Tommy Fay.​

Tommy lined out wi­th Moynalvey right through underage to senior, starring at midfield in an U-14 Div. 4 final in 1981 - ironically defeati­ng his later to be Moynalvey team-mate & friend De­clan Tuite, before going on to represent Meath at minor level claiming Leinster MFC honours in 1985 when defeating Off­aly in the final only to be beaten by Ma­yo in the All-Ireland Semi-Final.​

Tommy lined out mainly at midfield on the talented Moyn­alvey side of the 19­90’s, with his proud­est moment coming wh­en captaining the Mo­ynalvey team which won the 1993 Feis Cup with victory over Navan O’Mahonys. (alt­hough the final was played in 1994).

1994 also saw Tommy being part of a Mo­ynalvey panel which claimed honours in a Meath 7-a-side cham­pionship competition, while two years later he lined out in a SFC Semi-Final defeat to a talented Kilmainhamwood side which went on to win the 1996 Keegan Cup.

We pass our deepest sympathies to Maureen, Rachel, Conor, Anna and to Tommys extended family and wide circle of friends at this sad time.
