The GAA Social meets Wexford's Matty Forde
- Published
This week, the GAA Social sits down with former Wexford footballer Matty Forde.
The towering Ballyfad man is regarded as one of the greats of the game, winning an All-Star in 2008 as the Slaneysiders confounded expectations to reach that year's All-Ireland semi-final.
However, they were far from a flash in the pan, having reached the 2005 league final, beaten by an Armagh side that included none other than Oisin McConville.
In a wide-ranging conversation, Forde talks football and family, discussing the modern game, the glory days in the purple and gold, while opening up on the recent loss of his father, Paddy.
