He was run out of Dublin with his tail between his legs

Like the Galway stick hurlers.

He fearlessly put it up to the sectarian murdering IRA thugs and their campaign of ethnic cleansing. He loved Ulster.

He was always welcome at the Athletic Grounds for an Ulster club final

He didn’t seem to have much time for the Ulster people murdered on Bloody Sunday

Let’s hope Armagh do it for Willie tomorrow.

This is something the whole forum can get behind.

Willie’s father was murdered by the IRA in South Armagh in late 1975 when he was just 13. That was just a few weeks before the IRA in South Armagh bordered a bus full of workmen in Kingsmill. Told the one Catholic on the bus to get off and shot dead ten Protestant workmen.

Easy see how Willie was scarred for life. A lot of bar stooler Republicans have no appreciation of the deep rooted issues in the North.

Did Willie prove himself a tireless campaigner for victims of Loyalist terrorism also?

It would be a fitting tribute if two of Bomber Burns relatives can play a part in it tomorrow.

Willie was a tireless campaigner for all victims of terrorism.

I’m watching Willie talk in this video while also listening to Stormzy playing at Glastonbury

Quite the aural assault

I’ll miss his information videos from Toilet halls in dark Public Houses. The picture & sound quality was always top notch.

Willie was much loved everywhere

Everybody seems to be doing something commemorative for him

Murray’s pub in O’Connell Street has reverted to its former name of Frazer’s for Pride weekend in his honour

Willie and his brethren of course made quite the impression in that very spot in 2006

The Pride march itself will feature a “Love Ulster, Love Willie” float

What a pity he isn’t there this weekend

One of the greats, as they say
