The FAI have fantastic items out in Abbottstown and it is a shame that they are not on general display even on their website.Unless you get invited in you cannot see them.While i have to give them huge  credit for honouring the ex players and the alcoves themselves are fantastic and brilliantly designed and maintained it would be nice if everyone could see them on the FAI website even.

of course you can walk into the main reception area where they have 2 alcoves and a display area but the vast majority of the items are housed thruout the building and you need to be buzzed in again you can't just stroll around the offices.

Charlie played for Millwall first. His family moved from Cork when he was 7. Was nicked named King Charlie at Rolka Park [old Sunderland ground] Was also named Sunderland played of the century. Great man had a chat with him in Galway when Roy Keane brought over Sunderland to play Galway. Lets not forget his fellow Cork man Noel Cantwell another great player.

Good post bud the old training ground in the days before the Academy of Light was called the Charlie Hurley Training ground and theres a bar named after him at the SOL.
His song " Whos the greatest centre half the world has ever seen Charlie Hurley is his name " is still sung at matches by Sunderland supporters. Cool
Double Maxim without doubt the greatest drink in the world

I know a Sunderland supporting student at Sunderland University from Cork whos old man began supporting SAFC because Charlie Hurley was playing for the club at the time. Cool
