Plunkett Donaghy is a former Gaelic footballer who played for the Moy club and the Tyrone county team.
With his county, Donaghy won three Ulster Senior Football Championship medals (in 1984, 1986 and 1989) and an All Star in 1986.
[1] His mother Maisie, originally from Brackaville, was a widely acclaimed Irish folk singer (under the stage name Eileen Donaghy) whose success brought her on tour around the world.
Donaghy was part of the Tyrone team that went to their first All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final in 1986, against Kerry, and won an All Star Award for his contributions.
Donaghy was known for his great ability to catch a ball, and he was instantly recognisable on the pitch due to his "shaggy" blond hair.
