In an interview with the Sunday Independent, he stated that "his club turned their back on him as he announced plans to join the newly-formed PSNI in 2002." In 2010 Heffron was seriously injured, losing his right leg, when a dissident republican bomb was detonated under his car. Two club committee members who visited Heffron's parents while he was in a coma said "we are not here to represent the club, we are only here in a personal capacity?". The Club refused to comment.
