Seeing Michael Murphy retire from Donegal last week got Derry captain Chrissy McKaigue "A wee bit emotional."
It resonated with the 33-year-old Ulster Championship winning skipper who openly says he thinks about retirement every day. Donegal icon Murphy debuted in 2007 for his county, while McKaigue made his Derry bow the following season as a teenager.
But the skipper isn't ready to call it quits just yet. One of the main reasons McKaigue is ploughing on next year is his belief that “the sky’s the limit” for Derry after this season’s Anglo-Celt Cup triumph - their first since 1998.
