He has been the voice of Donegal sport for the past 40 years.
But presenter Charlie Collins is set to hang up the microphone after a career that has seen the Letterkenny man cover sport in every corner of Donegal and beyond.
He may have started life as a psychiatric nurse in St Conals Hospital, but it was the early days of local radio with Donegal Community Radio that Charlie found his calling.
He later established himself as a local household name with Highland Radio before helping to set up the Donegal Sporthub and then moving to Donegal Daily.
Charlie has covered all the major sporting events in Donegal down through the years including All-Ireland Finals, numerous Donegal International Rallies, FAI Cup Finals and so much more in between.
He may not have tasted much success with his beloved Spurs over the years, but Collins has always ensured that all sports in Donegal got their fair share of coverage.
Never a man to say no, Charlie has also assisted so many local clubs and organisations who needed a person behind the microphone.
His easy way and comfortable style hid the fact that Collins always had his homework done before hosting any event.
Now that the curtain is set to come down on his career, a very special ‘Night for Charlie’ has been arranged.
The event, which includes dinner, will take place in the Mount Errigal Hotel in Letterkenny on Friday, November 15th.
It promises to be a night of nostalgia, fun and craic and a chance to turn the microphone on Charlie for one last time.
Tickets for the event can be purchased from the Mount Errigal Hotel on (074) 912 2700.
