‘Mate’ Lydon was a Galway original, a character, a champion salmon snatcher and a great judge of porter. He was born in Rope Walk in the Claddagh in 1908. His name was Martin Lydon, but because he spent much of his childhood in his grandmother’s house, he was known locally as Máirtín Harte. He attended the Claddagh National School. He loved hurling, became a very good soccer player and was a regular on the famous Claddonians team which won the first ever Schweppes Cup in 1937. Our first image shows that team: seated Joe Flaherty, Jack O’Donnell, Martin Lydon, Bob Cantwell, Gus Flaherty, Thomas Lydon. Standing are Jimmy Connell, Martin Connell, Paddy Cubbard, Dick Ebbs, Jack Connor, Frank Fitzgerald and Eddie Cloherty.

I was born with a genetic condition called “Hurlers Syndrome,” which most people are unaware of, it’s because of this condition that I have this hip problem and why at the age of nine months old, I underwent a stem-cell bone-marrow transplant. Throughout my childhood, people told my parents that I wouldn’t amount to much in life and that I would always struggle with walking and will end up in a wheelchair, so why should I try my best in everything I do; I’ll tell you why – I am a very determined person and I hate being told I can’t do something so I do things to prove people wrong because they don’t get to be the judge of what I do, I’m the only person who can judge that.
