The players gave Ireland their best ever World Cup finish.. I’d argue that Jack stunted the team a lot. We had an incredible team back then, if you seen the players you’d know the names. Most players in top clubs.. but Jack wanted to play the long ball game.
A few years after he left the Ireland job, Jack said that his main thing was to get people enjoying Ireland duty. So the attitude was do what you need to do on the Sunday. Visit your sick auntie, go for a drink, whatever but from Monday until I release you, you will concentrate on nothing but the game. It worked so well that players wanted to come to the Ireland training camps even if they were injured.
@@DanaBlackCEO yeah your right. Different talents in many ways. Also could be more respectful of memory. I really do apologise for the offence I've caused.
I had the privilege of meeting BIG JACK a few times, through fishing, not football. All I'll say is = what a man's man brill guy!! No wonder the Irish fellas would jump through fire for him, because he'd stand in the fire for them! I'm sure some of Jack's plain talking rubbed off on KEANO ❤
@@barry4649 players are absolute Fanny’s and totally out of touch with the working class people that support them get some ale down ya and get on with it
@@liamsanderson8603 players obviously still go out drinking but going out on sessions when you’re supposed to be training the next day at a top club is going to fuck your career up and only worked back then because everyone was doing it, and the fact you drink ale tells me you’re over the age of 40 or you’re a big massive culchy 😂
Imagine if he played in this era lol he would be getting so many red cards in every game because today’s game is so soft and the referees are giving red cards like crazy. What a legend for man united and I use hate all man united players and fans but I miss the old days
Jack developed dementia. Hopefully he wasn't too affected by it all. He had a good life . Watch the film 'finding Jack Charlton ' .if you haven't already
Given the size of the country, you DID do something amazing. At that time, 🇮🇪 were other fan's second favourite country side. So many people took you into their hearts.
@@markkofi8522doesn't mean yoy should settle. That particular Irish team could've been a dark horse to win a tournament, and could've played great football on the way.
I'd never count myself among those, as i never really loved them. The birds, and booze made them a necessary evil. However whatever affection i had for that scene has long since run it's course.
When footballers were real professionals then you slated Mick McCarthy and then walked out on you're team mates and fans because McCarthy wasn't up to your high standards.
And Jack gave Ireland their best ever world Cup finish

We had an even better team when Roy walked out on us. Beaten by Spain in pens in the KO stages.
@@LeMerch Yeah. Irwin, McGrath, Keane, Aldridge is a great spine
@@cerberus1321 your having a laugh. Your just having a pop at Roy for being sent home
@@bennib5 better team in every position
Jack was a great manager and man sadly missed even today
The way he had that great Irish team playing was unwatchable. The ball spent most of it's time in the air or with the opposition.
@@bobbyhanly3466watch it again
And in Ireland jack was unbelievably loved ❤
Legend
One of less than five people to be given honorary citizenship.
@@michaelfarrow5817 one of eleven people including his wife
Miss big Jack
Truly loved by Irish fans . ❤

That's how you man manage. Players need to leave of some steam also. It avoids burnout
Great manager Jack Charlton, absolute quality..he was a member of the best Leeds team ever and won a World Cup winner's medal. God rest him.
Not as good as Bobby.
@@douglasbatleynot really a need to compare them
@@DanaBlackCEO yeah your right. Different talents in many ways. Also could be more respectful of memory. I really do apologise for the offence I've caused.
Honesty is the best policy
More like bravest. And hypocrisy is safest
Forever loved , our big Jack. Thank you for the memories 🇮🇪

Jack Charlton the only English man the irish let into thier hearts, RIP.
What about Andy Townsend lmao
We will never forget what Jack did for us. Amazing man. Absolute legend and sorely missed.
Never be another jack.
Always got a Bobby though 😊
Big Jack, what a man
Keane's dog .Always there. 😅
Gotta love big jack great memories.
I'm only looking at the doggie 😊😍woo woo
Different times back then Jack treated his players like men not children gave them responsibility.
I love it.
When footballers were proper footballers 😂
Proper footballers don't walk out on their country during a world cup.
And cultivated alcoholic ex players
These 2 above are stupid....
I'm an Irish man and I love this cos it so true unfortunately but still get up for work tho!!
Box office keane!!
Irish legend 👌👍🍀🇮🇪
Roy looking like he's doing graft on a BMX
No way Paul McGrath would be back at 2pm. 😂
You'd be lucky to see him at all the next day. 😂😂🤦🏽
But what a player he was.
He hopped on the plane to Israel one night haha
And look at the state of Irish football today,
You gotta love 💟 Roy
What an absolute legend big jack was, players and managers soft as shit these days
The games just gotten more professional, if you do that shit you’re more likely to lose matches because of the shit preparation

@@liamsanderson8603 and what is wrong with that May I ask, I can’t wait to hear this pearl of wisdom?
jacks paddy style man management

He'd adapt his game. Roy was a fantastic footballer.
He wasn't all crunching tackles and elbows.
This isn't Vinnie Jones.😂
@@markkofi8522 kkkk you right vinnie jones was crazy player
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The last few months of jacks life was Covid
Sad ending for sir Jack

Back when you used to turn up for ireland.
Had Jack been a little bit more professional and positive .we could have done something amazing with the players we had in 1988 and 1990
Given the size of the country, you DID do something amazing.
At that time, 🇮🇪 were other fan's second favourite country side.
So many people took you into their hearts.
@@markkofi8522doesn't mean yoy should settle. That particular Irish team could've been a dark horse to win a tournament, and could've played great football on the way.
But look how the TEAM performed.
The best era of Irish soccer. They should get locked a bit more
*football
Imagine if they actually took their game seriously, not as an afterthought to priority #1 of getting drunk.
@@DJLiddlethey're synonyms. Its an English word.
@@scottsinner7530This was 30 years ago, and no British country was any different.
@@kb5509 I don't care if it's an English word. It's still football
The old days were unreal 😂 You'd have to pull you're weight though!!
Because Jack was also a lad(excuse the near pun)
After he’s done with his story, id be like: “huh?”
😅😅❤
Roy needs to write a book on his career. 😅
He has already written 2
Lmai nearly everyone mentioned in Keane story here was English
😂😂😂😂🎉
I will never understand why people love nightclubs so much. But hey everybody does. Moronic masses and all that I guess.
I'd never count myself among those, as i never really loved them. The birds, and booze made them a necessary evil. However whatever affection i had for that scene has long since run it's course.
🤣🤣🤣

Big Jack achieved sainthood in Ireland.
Bring back the drink
This is the same man who flounced out of a world cup because he said the Irish FA weren't professional enough
Love Roy but… behaving like that one day and leaving the World Cup another because of lack of professionalism… funny but ?
I think his point was, when it was time to train, he trained better than everyone.
However I didn’t agree with him walking out on his country.
One day? Theres over a decade between them. People develop, which is why by the time 2002 came around, he was completely teetotal.
😂😂😂
