TV hosts Michael Lyster is recovering in hospital following a recent heart attack.

'The nurses were genuflecting as they brought him his medicine!' - Brolly

Joe Brolly reveals that TV host Michael Lyster is well on the road to recovery following his heart attack.

JOE BROLLY POPPED in to see Michael Lyster in hospital yesterday morning, he revealed on The Sunday Game’s coverage of the Galway-Mayo Connacht SFC clash yesterday.

At half-time, Lyster’s stand in host Darragh Maloney took the opportunity to wish Lyster well in his recovery from a recent heart attack.

“I know Michael’s watching proceedings in hospital and doing really well with his recovery, so get well soon, Michael.”

Brolly reckoned that Lyster would have “a big smile on his face” from watching Gary Sice’s brilliant first half goal for his beloved Galway.

He added: “I went in to see him this morning and I was delighted to see the nurses were genuflecting as they brought him his medicine!

“Seriously, the heart attack was nothing to do with me, I asked the medical staff!

“I should say this, because a lot of people are anxious about him, he looks great, he really looks great.

“You wouldn’t believe he had a heart attack.

“And he said ‘I think I’ll be able to do the programme next week’ and you should see the look of horror on his wife Anne’s face!

“He was quite serious, he looks great. It was very reassuring to see him looking so well.”
