Flan would have been a Gaa referee for a number of years in Clare and in his later years would have been seen as an umpire regularly. He also worked at Clare Gaa in Cusack Park and regularly did the old Scoreboard on match days at the Aldi end. Flan would have been well known for his cool, calm demeanor and the smell of tobacco from his old pipe. Flan would have played minor hurling with Sixmilebridge in his younger years.
