Shamrock Rovers pay tribute to club legend Ronnie Nolan

Shamrock Rovers have paid tribue to one of the club's "all-time greats" Ronnie Nolan, who has died aged 89.

Nolan joined the Hoops in 1952 and went on to win four league titles and six FAI Cups with the club.

In 1967 he moved on to become assistant manager to Sean Thomas at Bohemians where he won another FAI Cup, in 1970.

The defender won ten caps with the Republic of Ireland over a six-year period from 1956 to 1962.

In a message of condolence, Shamrock Rovers said: "We offer our heartfelt sympathy to Ronnie’s family, relatives and friends on their loss. Ronnie Nolan was truly one of the all-time greats."
