Comments
Dinny Hannon can actually be included in your dual international section.His 1924 Olympic honours have retrospectively been classified as full internationals.As an Athlonian I am very proud of Dinny.I had a good chat with him in 1961.I was home from London telling him about a Spurs match I had been to.
'I played in their ground in 1910' he told me.Actually I think it may have been a year or two earlier!
To conclude,why haven't we got a good website for the Republic of Ireland?
Dinny Hannon is really beautiful player. So sadly that there is so few information about him. Ehhh, legend....
