๐ 100 Years of The League of Ireland ๐
17/9/1921 The League of Ireland began. We were there then and we still live on today ๐๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ช
Many great players and managers have blessed our teams over the years. None more so than Patrick OโConnell who played for Manchester United and Ireland before managing and saving Barcelona. He managed many top flight clubs in Spain, among them, Real Betis, with whom he won their only La Liga in their 114 year history โฝ๏ธ๐
Oscar Traynor was another notable player for our club who played in goal. Known for far different reasons. He fought in the Easter Rising for our independence in 1916. Thereafter serving as our minister for justice, defence, posts and telegraphs and Teachta Dรกla ๐๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ช
Our club is rich in history and weโre not done just yet ๐๐ฝ๐ค
