The Football Talking Tour Podcast Episode Seven: Eoin Hand


Listen Later

Gary Cooke and Aodhan are joined by former Ireland football player and manager, Eoin Hand.
Eoin was born 30 March 1946
Hand played schoolboy football with Stella Maris. As a 17-year-old he was signed by Swindon Town but the move did not work out and he returned quickly to Ireland.
He started his League of Ireland career with short spells for Dundalk F.C. and Shelbourne F.C. but it was with Drumcondra F.C. that he found most success.
After a series of outstanding displays, he was signed by Portsmouth F.C. for a transfer fee of £8,000 in October 1968.
Hand impressed enough at Portsmouth to earn a call up to the Republic of Ireland national football team and went on to earn 19 caps for his country. He stayed with Portsmouth until being released at the end of the 1975–76 season. After a brief spell in South Africa, Hand was persuaded back into football by Shamrock Rovers making his debut on 9 October 1977 at Glenmalure Park. However, after only nine games he returned to Portsmouth F.C. He left again in 1979, after playing a total of 277 times in the league for them.
