He simply taught the Irish what he knew best.... to play football. He was a world champion and since then the Republic is a respected name in european football
As a Leeds and Northern Ireland fan I have to admit as a kid I switched allegiance to the Republic in the summers of 1990 and 94. What a time for Irish football. Leeds, England and Ireland legend. Working class hero of the North East, adopted son of Yorkshire. What a man and what a life, rip Jackie. Sad sad day
@@9inchsnails829 You can joke about it as much as you like (if it makes you feel better), but he did look down on the working class when he became rich and it's only idiots like you that worship him.
oh just found out about this, so sad, great guy and I so remember his success with Rep Of Ireland, haha I remember one time when they scored and he wasn't sure lol and then went jumping in celebration when he finally realised they had scored :) great times great days, now if only England had a manager like this, all England team gets is all the softies ha, R.I,.P. Jackie
Oh I remember it very well, my god is it that long ago? can't be? lol, oh well anyway one time when they scored and he wasn't sure lol and then went jumping in celebration when he finally realised they had scored :D
@Ted Bicard I was only 6 but remember it well. Magical is the word! The atmosphere is impossible to describe. I even remember 88. Sitting on my dad's knee and nearly getting catapulted across the room when we scored 😂
I was 11 in 1990 glad now that I can look back and remember it. Even though at the time I couldn’t watch the games the tension was too much. But the absolute joy when the results went our way. Unbelievable feeling. What a time. Hopefully some day those days can be replicated. The country was never so united as it was in the summer of 1990.
What a man, uniting a country and bringing the best years of football that Ireland has ever seen while setting the standard for future Irish teams. Forever a legend RIP Jack
@Northern dancer I think he knows that. He meant that Scots wanted Ireland to do well, that we could enjoy the journey of the underdog and that the excitement rubbed off on others in turn.
@@ArranLaPaul it's more the murder, pillage, rape and general history of the English as a nation that incites any hatred. We were talking about Ireland's journies under Big Jack, as a collective. No one mentioned England.
I was 8 years old watching the game of eire England in Africa in 88 we were maybe 50 people supporting Ireland and none of us could show you on the map the Irish republic And for some reason the man caught the eyes of most people that evening. The reason ? I don't really know, but you could see he was special.
As a 25 year old I’ve grown up listening to my father speak about the glory days under Jack Charlton and what he did not just for Irish football but for the irish people, an Englishman brought the nation together and whether there was difficult times back then as we all know I think we can all say thanks to big jack May you rest in peace and don’t forget to...PUT EM UNDER PRESSURE ☘️ ☘️ ☘️
@@ArranLaPaul He was granted Honorary Irish citizenship - which made him an Honorary Irishman. He was also granted Freedom of Dublin city. Both are fairly rare occurrences which is why I mentioned them.
He came at a time when we all woke up in the morning to the news of another senseless murder in the north. The message we sent by appointing an Englishman as the manager of our team was on thing, the things he did with this team will be hard to beat. He was a World Cup winner for England and was proud of that, I think he was just as proud about what he did for Ireland and will be forever Irish in all the hearts of Irish men and women who knew his name
RIP big jack, may you always be remembered, from a Liverpool fan, oh, you were the spine of England’s wc in 66, it was a pleasure to watch you in your prime 🙏🙏🙏🙏
RIP "big Jack the giraffe" big man with an even bigger heart, gods got 3 of the best Leeds United defenders in heaven to ever grace grass now...sleep well Jack.
For Jack to say "Good Luck to the people back home" just tells yah he had green blood running through his veins.Thanks Jack for the memories and good times.Rest in Peace.
Jack was responsible for some of the happiest and warmest memories of my childhood. He won't be just remembered as a football manager in this county but an important historical figure who lifted the vibration of this country during years of recession and gloom. Love and miss him so much
Cried with joy when we qualified for quarter finals, was only a younglad and my mother bought me the opel jersey after she saw that. No sign of a Celtic tiger back then not a lot of cash about but my parents knew it was a special time. Thanks JACK!
He put football on the radar in Ireland, he inspired hopes and dreams for the footballing youth of that generation that his continued to this day. RIP to a man that achieved so much in life, a life that should be very much celebrated.
What an absolutely wonderful man " a real man" RIP Jack Charlton love and peace, Jack Charlton brought people together no matter where ,or who, or what you were born to, it's what so needed in the world today , acceptance,grit, truth and honesty,and a get on with it
I’d like to express myself to talk to you all,first and foremost I’m sad and shocked when I heard the news this morning. I wasn’t born at that time,not in 1988,1990,but in 1992.I wouldn’t remember that time and the games we played. My mum is from Ireland,my mum’s family are from Ireland as well,they told me about good stories,how Jack played,how he wanted to achieve in the game,I was so looking forward to meet him for real, I’ve never ever met him,I’m sure you all you would like to meet Jack,I watched a documentary this year on CZcams,I loved the stories,it Fascinated not just for me, but for us all as fans.When we play our first ever competition for the international games, we’ll make Jack proud. Can I say I’d like to say thank you to Jack for all the memories,this football will be down in the history. Thanks a million mum and my family too, I’ll forget,the way you taught me,the way you told me.Gone,but not forgotten. R.I.P Jack!🇮🇪☘️
Ill never forget how he made us feel that summer what a legend a nation holds it breath and now a nation sheds a tear thanks for the memories rest in peace jack
Men like him and Bobby Robson were such nice humble men, something that is lost in modern football sadly. RIP to big Jack, me and my Irish dad living in England had such great times watching the Republic and there adventures under jack. My dad sadly passed last year, and though more of a rugby fan, he loved it when jack was in charge of Ireland.
Jackie touched me deeply, his words, his deeds. when in NI, as a young student from HK, I watched his final game and the game in Lisbon on telly, he stood in the rain frustrated puzzled, nodding. I cried and felt sorry for him. 25 yrs on, looking back, the joys overcome, 90, 94, Jack and his lads were brilliant.
Jack Charlton is a legend in Ireland forever he's a legend in Ireland forever an honorary Irishman and always will be Irelands adopted son forever pút em under pressure 1st 3 major tournaments euro 88 beat his home country and qualified for the world cup in Italy 1990 reached the quarter finals and beaten italy for the first time ever in USA 1994 he really put Irish soccer on the international map with the big boys he really made Ireland so tough to beat and play against nó one wouldn't have liked to play Ireland under Big Jack back then most liked English man in Ireland
We looked up to him, he gave us hope, and for that we'll be forever grateful..no matter where he came from he helped us as best he could 😍💚🇮🇪..R.I.P Jack Charlton
Alot of happy childhood memories is down to this man and what he done. I was too young to appreciate what was going on at the time but I loved the buzz the entire country had when jack was managing us. Thank you Jack R.I.P
One of the best moments and times in Ireland's history as a nation and as a people. Jack helped to change Ireland for the better. I hope, but i believe that we brought him as much joy as he gave to us.
I am going to be honest I never new about Jack Charlton until now plus I am watching Manchester United vs Leeds at the moment White rose against Red rose I bet Jack and Bobby regret falling out all them years ago because you only get one life end of the day Rip Jack definitely going to watch your documentary it looks amazing 🤩 plus I love the beautiful game 😍⚽
St,Patrick's day we should have a St,Jack's day,,, the joy he brought us the passion,,,, god were the pints flowing them nights,,,rest in peace BIG gentleman,,,BIG JACK,,,
I still get emotional when I hear that song 😂 I know I'm a sap! Its impossible to explain to anyone who wasn't there and I don't think any other sporting success will ever be quite like it. It was bigger than football. It was just a particular moment in time in the context of that moment. A collective hope and pride. Like collectively stepping into the sun after a long storm. Thanks for the good times Jack! 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
I really hope it is understood how much we loved this legend.Jack Charlton, world champion,Irish people's champion,he brought so much joy to all of Ireland in a torrid time, a great man, and yes,we do call him an Irish Legend!God bless him,his brother Bobby and all their families. Belfast, Ireland 🙏🇮🇪.
Working class hero, he showed that people are the same and that politics and power corrupt human relations ......RIP Jack , we will not see your likes again ...
Wasn't the most talented player or manager but he understood the game and knew how to get the best out of himself and the teams that he managed. What a playing career he had for Leeds and England. He and Ireland were a perfect fit back in 1986 when he took over. His personality shone through and players wanted to play for Big Jack. RIP Big Man, from this Man Utd supporter!!
remember kronstadt He was actually given full irish citizenship and travelled on an irish passport which is the highest honour ireland can bestow on a non national whatever about the UK side of it.
Who would have believed an englishman could become so loved by the irish people.Only with Bic Jack is that possible.A true legend
learn ya history mush, and then get back to me.
He simply taught the Irish what he knew best.... to play football. He was a world champion and since then the Republic is a respected name in european football
Thank you Jack Charlton for the best sporting memories of my life. A true English and Irish hero. Not too many hold that mantle.
Jack Charlton was responsible for the best football we had ever seen in Ireland and the biggest sessions, rip big man and thanks
@King Delevingne but don't forget the Irish ones as well
A piece of so many Irish peoples childhoods died with Jack. He made us dream when we were young! RIP Jack!
Hit the nail on the head my friend. So many good memories. Most of the people I shared those memories with have all gone too.
RIP Jackie 🇮🇪
Beautifully said,man
Special times and I'm so glad I was old enough/young enough to appreciate all of it
Feel so lucky to remember it ❤️
As a Leeds and Northern Ireland fan I have to admit as a kid I switched allegiance to the Republic in the summers of 1990 and 94. What a time for Irish football.

What a man and what a life, rip Jackie. Sad sad day
@@redblade8160 Jack looked down on everyone, it's hard not to at his height.
Your name is a bit of a giveaway as to why you seem so bitter towards him

You can joke about it as much as you like (if it makes you feel better), but he did look down on the working class when he became rich and it's only idiots like you that worship him.
@@redblade8160 is that why he marched with the Durham miners when Thatcher shut down the mines? Stop talking rubbish and have and respect for the man.

Iceman ire probably the only person I’ve ever see say a bad word. He’s just trying to be edgy. Sad and pathetic
Coached by him once upon a time.. Took no shite.. Workin man's man.... Loved by the Irish.. Loved by the English.. What a guy..
I wasn't even born when Charlton became manager, but I still follow his legacy. What an amazing manager, we'll miss you Jack

As a Scotsman he created a real buzz for us as well as we loved watching the team do well

a working class hero - OBE is that all there was?
They were knighted en masse decades later i think
remember kronstadt He was actually given full irish citizenship and travelled on an irish passport which is the highest honour ireland can bestow on a non national whatever about the UK side of it.
