RIP Jack

There's not much love lost between the Irish and the English . The English generally like Ireland and its people but that feeling is not reciprocated, which is all the more amazing that an Englishman , became a legend and was loved by the Irish nation and that man was Jack Charlton.

This documentary follows Jack's love affair with Ireland and is interspersed with clips of him in his in his last years when he was suffering from dementia.

While this tells the story about his footballing career , it's far more than that .

It's about two brothers who never really got on with each other but quite clearly loved one other . They were just to stubborn to tell each other .

It's about coping with dementia and if heading footballs was the cause of the disease and mostly it's about that wonderful Irish experience and how a nation went against everything they believed in and took an Englishman into their hearts .

How Jack Charlton never got a Knighthood is a scandal . The English governments who had the chance to put this right should be utterly ashamed of themselves.

RIP Jack.

Bigger than football

The Yorkshire man who won the World Cup for the country of his birth a bigger affect was to come on the country of his adoption. Reclaiming a flag restoring a pride and adding a brighter shade of Green to the future. Jack may forget Ireland but Ireland will never forget Jack. Captured beautifully in this documentary.

Worth the watch

Before I write anything else, I will say now that this is worth watching if you're a fan of the game. It skips over his playing career but delves intricately into his managerial career with the ROI. Hard to watch at times as it doesn't skirt from the big issues but overall it's an honest and interesting approach of the life of a great player, manager and person.
