League of Ireland Legends

Randomfriend

Hi guys, some of you LOI heads might have seen some of my prints floating around the internet over the last few months.

But, if you have no clue what I'm on about I'll post some examples below.

I've been doing a print series pertaining to club legends within the LOI, I'm making this thread in the hope that it could generate some discussion as regards your opinions on club legends, which will help me gauge who deserves to be included in the series, as well as which clubs they represent best. It dosen't have to be the best player to ever play for the club, just someone who became a cult legend, in the case of Paddy McCourt, or tremendous servants to the club, the below gents being prime examples.












I'm open to opinions regarding each and every club, and any help is much appreciated. If you want to see more of the stuff, just check out my signature or drop a PM my way. Thanks!

That's the general consensus I've gotten from all at Bray so far, both are held in very high regard.

Speaking of bray, I've no clue where Jason Byrne should go? I've already done a Kevin Hunt for Bohs, and they'd also have someone like Owen Heary, but he and Byrne could also be decent shouts for Shelbourne..

thought this said " League of Legends Ireland " and I'd wandered into the wrong forum

I know personally Id be able to pick out Tarzan quicker anyway, right from a young age he has been Bray Wanderers.

Do Byrne at multiple clubs, only way. What a man!

Cahill was decent but hardly a legend

As far as legends for Derry go I'd have Liam Coyle over Paddy McCourt any day.

Pedro K

Jackie Jameson would have been a good shout for Bohs, but I don't think many would argue with Kevin.

Augmerson

Joseph Ndo!

Owen Heary, Tony Sheridan or Mark Rutherford for Shels in my time supporting them.

Kerrydude1981

Jonathon Speak,Liam Coyle

I wouldn't do Heary for Bohs tbh. Bit of a touchy subject. Jackie definitely!

Dan Murray; George O'Callaghan; Mick Devine; Denis Be...... :P

Agreed. Heary is Shels.

Hunt, Jameson, Toccy would be the most suitable for Bohs I reckon.

Don't know how you can include Pascal with the likes of Dixie Dean and Joseph et al and leave out David Pugh, Johnny Brookes, Gerry Mitchell, Mick Leonard, "Ski" McGee etc

Pascal coming on against Shels and having us all believing we unearthed a future star for a while will always be one of my favourite Rovers memories. It was a fantastic day. The Showgrounds was rocking.

Pascals a bigger legend than any of them. Mick Leonard never did a backflip.

Cousins, Rice, Treacy, Twigg

Thanks guys all of this info helps a lot!

In case anyone's wondering, here's a full list of what I've done so far..

Bohs - Kevin Hunt
Cork City - John Caulfield
Derry City - Paddy McCourt
Dundalk - Tommy McConville
Finn Harps - Jim Sheridan
Galway Utd - Eamonn Deacy
Longford Town - Alan Kirby
Shamrock Rovers - Gary Twigg
Sligo - Joseph Ndo
St. Pat's - Paul Osam

I'm sure people will disagree with some choices, but I plan on doing 2nd, and possibly 3rd prints for certain clubs where applicable.

Owen Heary for Shels looks like what I'll get cracking on next.

The pic of him with the league title posted earlier would be class.

Fabio for Drogheda?

Gavin "shels"

If you do Heary next you'll be guaranteed at least one sale!

You probably won't get many responses from UCD fans :pac:

Don't think I'd be in a position to inform you having only supported them for a few years, but I'll get onto the head of the supporters club to see if he has any suggestions and photos.

I have an online shop, you can find the link to it on my website which is in my signature. I'd link it directly here, but I'd guess that might be frowned upon with the mods.

Drop me a PM if you have any questions
