Speaking to the Irish Mirror, he said: "She'd still play the odd time now.

"There was an online link going around at the time to buy tickets and she still buys the odd ticket from time to time but she hasn't won yet.

"We didn't really know who she was at the time, she was more popular with the younger crew but we thought she must be somebody famous because she had a few security but I don't think she'd need it around here."

He added: "We'd love to give her a jersey or something like that to say thanks. There are plenty of Taylor Swift fans down here who will be hoping to go see her next year."
