I would always be happy to endorse Peter as a business partner who is hard working; totally professional and very committed to delivering value on the agreed outcomes.”

Stephen Twaddell
President Europe

“Peter Halpin is excellent at what he does because he brings old fashioned qualities to a sector that is badly in need of them. Peter is not flash. Peter is not one to "hob nob" or one for "jersey touching"; as one of Irish football’s greatest ever players calls it. Peter Halpin is, in recent times, starting to see success and it’s because of those qualities that it’s taken time to come but also why it will be sustained. Peter is now, among other things, consulting with FAPL and Championship clubs - business which is hard won and for which the competition is fierce. Peter is bright and talented with a passion for football; determined and hard working; painstaking in his assessment and preparation; integrity personified; commercially savvy. The final point is that Peter’s quiet and gentle disposition should not camouflage the fact that – not inappropriately given his work – Peter has balls!”

Fintan Drury
