Tommy Dunne

    • Position: Midfielder
    • Number: TBC
    • Age: 92 (1st January, 1932)

    An attack-minded wing half, capable of taking a firm grip on proceedings in the middle of the park, he began his senior career as an inside forward with Shamrock Rovers in 1951.

    At the end of that season he left Milltown to join St Patricks Athletic, one of the best deals the Inchicore club has ever done. The son of Jimmy Dunne, who played for Arsenal in the 1930s, he helped St Pats take the league crown from Rovers in 1954-55, and helped them retain it the following year.

    Dunne's form for Pats saw him win full international honours.

    As the captain of St Pats he led the club to success in two FAI Cup finals in 1959 and 1961. In the summer of 1964, he moved to the north west and joined Sligo Rovers. Two years later he moved to Dundalk, whom he helped win the league in 1966-67.

    Tommy passed away on May 15th, 2015


    Previous Clubs: Johnville (1950-1951), Shamrock Rovers (1951-1954), Jacobs (loan) (1953-1954)
