Kevin Cassidy (born 1981) is an Irish-Scottish[2] Gaelic footballer, businessperson, columnist and commentator. Though born in Glasgow, Scotland, he has been living in Gaoth Dobhair, County Donegal from a young age.

Cassidy plays his club football for Gaoth Dobhair, with whom he has won three Donegal Senior Football Championships and one Ulster Senior Club Football Championship. Regarded as one of the best attacking wing half-backs of his generation, Cassidy has also played in midfield and even been his club's leading target man at the edge of the square during their successful Ulster Senior Club Football Championship campaign.[3] A former member of the Donegal county team, Cassidy was twice an All Star — in his maiden season and in his last. He won the 2007 National Football League and the 2011 Ulster Senior Football Championship, before an enforced — and, subsequently, permanent — absence from the inter-county scene after Cassidy became involved in a dispute about a book with manager Jim McGuinness. In May 2012, the Irish Independent named him in its selection of Donegal's "greatest team" spanning the previous 50 years.[4]

A qualified schoolteacher and fluent Gaeilgeoir, Cassidy's business ventures include the pub Teach Mhicí and Coláiste Chú Chulainn — a summer residential Gaelscoil for children of primary school age. He writes a weekly column for Gaelic Life and is often a co-commentator with both TG4 and RTÉ Sport.

Cass kind of liked the idea of that, it took a while for him to come into it but once he found his bearings, listen, as you've all seen the last few weeks, the man is hard to touch at the minute with the two feet on him.
