I pay tribute today to a giant of the soccer community: "Mr Glendowan" — Eddie Mulligan — who sadly passed away at the start of the week. The impact that Eddie had on my community — the Colin community — and the influence that he had on our young people for over 25 years cannot be measured. He changed lives and futures and saved lives, and he even had an influence on my children, who play for Glendowan FC. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, who are going through a difficult time, as they have also just lost their mother; with the Glendowan family; and with Eddie's friends. Eddie will be forever loved and missed, and he will not be forgotten by the people of the Colin area and by Glendowan FC family.
