Thoroughly decent man I’d say.
In my life by the Beatles is one of the greatest songs ever, played just as the credits finished rolling, nothing else would have worked as well, no lyrics even required.
You don’t want to over romantacise players of that era either. The pace of the game was a lot slower than it is now.
That was a lovely show.

John Giles came across as a bit of a creep in that

Yes. You might even spot me in it for a split at Dalymount (I think) at the Bohs Limerick game.
