 Includes NotesNotes for William James Mckeever:
Billy [william]McKeever was born in 19Quarry Street in the shadow of his beloved Brandwell Football
Ground.It was while he was standing on the terraces cherring on the Candy Stripes in league game
against Linfield on a Saturday afternoon in 1949 that he first met his future wife,Sally,whom he married
in 1953. Both he and Sally were to follow the team through thick and thin in the early 1970.
When Derry City returned to the League of Ireland the couple once again put on the famous Red and
White colours and as the saying goes took to the road, traveling the leangh and breadh of Ireland
as well as into Europe. By now they had joined us in the Creggan Community Supporters Club whose
Motto is No Journey is too far to Support the Team, Iknow without doubt that Billy will be very sadly
missed both on the terraces in the Brandywell and even though he will beno longer there in body to
cheer on the team ,I have a sneaky feeling that Billy Mc Keever will be there in spirit,
Liam Gallagher,
Chairman of Creggan Community D.C.S,C.
