- Narrated by author Paul Howard, the film tells the story of the Dún Laoghaire borough football team, Pearse Rovers from Sallynoggin, through the eyes of those who played for and coached the team from its founding in 1954. It's a story about a working class community born in the midst of a TB epidemic in Ireland. Among many voices we hear from Pearse Rovers most famous son - legendary Ireland international, Paul McGrath. The film was produced by DigitalDub.ie and men's mental health initiative JumpersforGoalposts.ie.

Brought back so many good memories of my time there as a player and team coach. There are many more stories that could be told. Michael Lennon
Glad to hear Michael - we only scratched the surface but hopefully it’s provided people with the opportunity to reminisce and share other stories with each other.
I remember you well Michael.
Excellent
Great stuff. Fairly certain Ger Keating was up at Bellevue Boys in the 80s too, up on Thomastown Rd.
Great oppertunity to thank Brendan O Connor, Michael Lennon and remember the extraordinary human being that was John (Mister) Lennon.Played for Pearse late 60s to mid 70s, excellent club and people. George Hogan.
