Congratulations have been extended to “St Brigid's legend” Senan Kilbride and his wife Mariya on their recent wedding.

 “All at St Brigid's wish them a lifetime of happiness,” said the club’s Facebook page.

Senan retired from the Roscommon senior football panel back in 2016.

The St Brigid’s attacker was to the fore alongside his brother Ian as his club team captured the All-Ireland title in 2013, while also being the go-to man for his county for the guts of a decade.

The left-footed corner forward made his championship debut for Roscommon in 2008 against Galway, spending much of his early years in the set-up competing in the lower divisions of the national league.

He missed out through injury in 2010 as Roscommon captured the Connacht title, but went on to win Division Two and Three league titles.

Former teammates and the community in his native South Roscommon have wished Senan and Mariya every health and happiness.
