‘League of Ireland fans are mad’ – Moses Dyer ‘getting used to life’ at Galway Utd after bagging award for super April

MOSES DYER has found life’s a beach in Galway as he has taken the League of Ireland by storm.
New Zealand international Dyer is the SSE Airtricity Soccer Writers’ Ireland Player of the Month for April after bagging four goals during the month.
He currently leads the Premier Division scoring charts with eight goals this season as he has quickly adapted to life in Ireland after spells in his native New Zealand, Norway and Canada.
Dyer, 28, said: “It took me a while to get used to the weather and a lot of rain in Galway, the heavy fields, but I feel like I'm starting to get used to it now.
“The landscape is very similar (to New Zealand). Galway is a beach town so every time the sun is out I'm there.
“And the people in Ireland are very real. Very relaxed as well, not a lot of people work here! You go down to the city and the city is packed on a Tuesday at 10am!”
On the field, he quickly settled as he helped Galway United into the top half of the table before two losses on the bounce have seen them slip to eight.
He said: “The games are mad. The fans are mad in this league. And the football is fun. It's very fast-paced and a lot of crosses. It's good for strikers.
“You're coming to a new country, everything is different. But I just kept training, kept my head down and I believed that I could...
“Even the first few games, I think it took me five games to score. And every game I'd be disappointed, but I knew I could score in this league. And now it's come off, so it's rewarding.”
