The surname probably gives it away. Yes related to Thomas, but if you're of a particular age- you will know of the exploits of Mickey Niblock. An All-Ireland winning minor and U21, Derry seniors flew him back to play for the team in the 70's, when New York was his home. The building sites of the Bronx was his home. Derry could win Ulster championships- but they couldn't beat Kerry. 50 years later and watching his son David play for Cork and Nemo Rangers, Mickey has a sheep farm in "Seamus Moynihan country" Glenflesk, Co Kerry. Love brought him to Munster and he’s been there ever since. He's played with icons, against the best and enjoyed every minute. A stint playing soccer led him to the New York Cosmos, playing striker. He returned to Ireland to play "Real football" and Pele replaced him as striker. Sliding doors moment. No regrets. A life well lived, and something a bit different for this week on the GAA Social Podcast
