R.I.P Jimmy, Condolenses to family and friends

One of the greatest Irish players of all time, RIP Jimmy, you was a great ambassador for football and for your country.

RIP but never saw him. I did hear about him though.

while we are here, who actually have been the best Irish players, of all time?

here is my provisional list :

1. George Best

2. Liam Brady

3. John Giles

Danny Blanchflower deserves to be on any such list as well, and let's not forget Harry Gregg.

Northern Ireland have had some very good players, then they have had George Best, the best player i have ever seen. There problem being they have rarely got it together as a team. Giles and Brady played for R.O.I.

I don't think it would all that difficult to put an all-time all-Ireland team together that would give an all-time England team a pretty good run for their money.

surely it's Pat Jennings in net. Not Harry Gregg.

I wasn't thinking of a fantasy Irish team when I replied to your earlier post, I was just thinking up names of top Northern Irish players and Gregg came to mind, of course, Jennings was probably the better one, just didn't think of him at the time of posting.

Very sad
