Don’t think there’s one Irish person over 35 who doesn’t remember the excitement of this era - RIP Jack!! A part of Ireland’s sporting history forever!!
cynderfan2233 I'd like to hear you're thoughts on how this was borrowed from Scotland. Obviously it's sampled from horslips dearg doom, which itself samples another irish song called o Neills march
John Devereux The scots borrowed the song O Neills march, then mixed it up and added lyrics, creating the song "Ally's Army". The Irish then took that version and changed the lyrics. That's how it was borrowed from Scotland.
youngpupful 1990 was the first time we ever really had it though wasnt it the atmosphere around that world cup was something else jesus i was only a nipper and i can remember it some craic it was
+youngpupful I was only born in 86', so I can only vaguely recall the world cups of the early 90s, but I remember them fondly. I think that those years were special because there was an optimism present that seems to no longer be. The country was starting to be a place where a young person could find work and not be faced with the prospect of emigration or unemployment. Also, the greed and banality of the celtic tiger years had yet to bite. It was perfect brew of different things that made the 90s the best decade of all :)
+malicant123 I have to disagree with you that the 90s were the best decade of all! I was a teenager in the 80s and they were the BEST years! We had the BEST films and music! Nobody had anything, there was very little money around, but it didn't matter! We had lots of good, innocent fun. I feel sorry for the kids of today growing up with their smartphones and "labels" - I'd have hated to grow up in times that were tainted by materialism. I remember running round in 99p runners from Penneys and thinking I was the business!
R.I.P. The biggest legend in Irish football history. Transformed a country and supplied so many magnificent memories that will never be forgotten. See ya big fella.
Who's shedding tears tonight? Hm...I never thought I'd be crying over a man I never met at 53 year of age...RIP Jack, you gave our country confidence, optimism and happiness - at a time when nothing else could.
You were part of our childhood. Great memories running around the estate, proudly waving our Irish flag, all the car horns beeping at us. Faces painted green white and orange. Oh the excitement we felt during those times. Special times. Never to be forgotten. All I can say is, “Give it a lash” up there for us all dear Jack. ⚽️🇮🇪 🍻 #WeWereAllPartOfJackiesArmy
I was too young for Italia 90, but hopefully we can get another moment like it. Watching the sheer joy people experienced during Italia 90 always brings a tear to my eye. I think every country in the world deserves their own Italia 90 kind of moment, a moment where everybody is galvanised by a belief and pride in your nation.
Hard to believe this is 25 years ago. I remember singing that song the entire summer holidays while I was in Donegal with my cousins. Even when I got back to London, I remember loads of people flying Irish flags and singing "Olé olé olé!" Happy day :)
+Clinton O'Shea Was brilliant, I was only 4 back then and i can remember the tv being moved into the garden because the weather was fantastic and the whole family around for for the Ireland games.
I love this song. What a team! that team from Euro 1988 and Worldcup 1990...one step from the semifinals twice! what an envy! not possible for México yet...maybe never :(
Nearly 30 years later this song STILL gives me goosebumps. Day of Ireland/Denmark match a few months ago, my wife heard it on the radio and asked me about it but didn’t know the name of it.....when I started humming th3 start of it, she said that was it......still a class song
Seeing English and Irish flags flying together at Jack's funeral was such a powerful scene. What that man did for Ireland can never be underestimated. A cultural hero and a legend.
For his family deepest condolences. He was one of a kind, and a kind one. His life and work touched thousands, but none more than his family who will miss him most. Goodnight Jack.
Will these days ever be seen again with a song like that. I'd like to think so but I doubt it. RIP Jack thanks for the childhood memories growing up to these magical moments. Thank you and no one can take those memories away u gave us. God bless
Good god 25 years ago ,a quarter of a century ! where has the time gone , this was a special time ..the country was impoverished unemployment with Sky High wages were shit , tax was 40 percent ,we have no decent roads ,everybody wore shell suits ! all we had for international cuisine what's the local Chinese , best TV program on the telly was Glen row ; but this football team and Jackie gave us the confidence to create a Celtic Tiger .....f*** it all up, but at least we have decent roads ! not bad .
I play soccer myself and before i go to training or a match, i listen to this song so much times. We are all very proud of ireland ❤️ I have probably watched this video about 1000 times 😂
I remember being in a night club in New Jersey a few years ago and they played this as last song every night. Americans couldn't understand why the whole place went mental and everyone up on shoulders screaming. Was brilliant
Just the music you know Irish and I’m proud and one day we will win and bring it home for you Jackie :) we are all apart of your army and forever in your dept

31.12.2019 and still one of my favourite ever songs and videos. I was 7 going on 8 for Italia 90, it was absolutely amazing. This song, I use it as a motivational starter if I'm having a slow start to a work day. Epic 🇮🇪♥️🙂⚽️
A World Cup winning player, with one country (a one club man too as a player) and a legendary manager in another. There will never be another Jack Charlton.
Our best manager ..the man that was most loved in in Ireland in that time ..I remember this recorded been played everywere as I was kid running around with my packy Bonner jersey ..only reason I became a goal keeper was because of him I only loved football because of jack 🇮🇪♥️ rip big man
So sad that he's gone just listening to this song on classic hits in Dublin and I must say even tho I was not alive for Italia 90 I'm still in tears.❤❤❤R.I.P Jack Charlton
This truly does bring tears to my eyes. Reminds me of my Granda who is no longer with us. What a time What a man Jackie was. There will never be another like him RIP GAFFER 💚
So many legends on that team led by the big man himself big Jack. Glory days as an Irish fan. Before the Celtic Tiger when all we had was each other. Great memories
What a manager, what a team!!! The glory days of Irish football. R.I.P Jack. You lifted a whole nation, theres never been another like ya and never will be.

Teddy McCarthy was a bigger football legend. Jack was the greatest in Irish soccer though
Who’s Teddy McCarthy ?
The fact Ireland and England flags flew together at Jack's funeral is a testament to the cultural significance of the man. Truly loved and respected
Rip to the greatest man ever in Irish football, as the whole of ireland grieves with his family. RIP Jack thanks for the memories 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪❤️😭
