Touching picture of Conor McManus making one young Monaghan fan very happy

Conan Doherty

This is just brilliant.

Conor McManus is the perfect role model.

He’s got loads of talent – more than most. He’s worked damn hard to improve his conditioning – more than most. And he’s an all-round nice guy leading one of the top sides in Ireland.

The Monaghan full forward bagged a 1-6 tally for himself yesterday as the Farney booked their spot in the Ulster final with victory over Fermanagh.

And the Clontibret man had plenty of time for fans afterwards as well.

He was captured in this wonderfully sweet Sportsfile photograph taken with a young fan after the game.

He’s the perfect football player for young kids to look up to and it seems that his status is only growing with each passing performance.
