Best wishes to Ultan Harney on his retirement. He gave everything to the Roscommon cause since he appeared on the scene as a very talented young minor. That's all you can ask for. Thanks Ultan.

Indeed. I loved watching him play. He was all action. Unfortunately, he seemed to be cursed with injuries at times. Hope he enjoys the retirement.

He scored a great goal for the U21s in the All Ireland semi final in 2014 against Cork. Always felt Ultan had the ability to achieve more at senior inter county level than he actually did.

I remember thinking he was excellent in that Div 2 league final against Galway, seemed to be in great condition. And from memory but could be wrong think he was one of the few bringing the fight to Galway when they out muscled and out thought us in the championship game the same year. His profile is actually ideal for the new rules physical, athletic, good kicker of the ball. It said in the article he's only 29, that's such a shame. He should be at his peak.

I'd say he's more like 31?
From memory wasn't 2016 his last year at u21?
