## Resource

Part 2 in the story of one of Ireland's greatest managers. George Hamilton brings his memories and experiences to help us relive the first bit of success Ireland had on the international tournament front. George and Connor discuss how the Irish fans began to take Jack Charlton to their heart and how the term 'Union Jack' was becoming a distant memory. Find out how Euro '88 was the benchmark to which Irish sporting success is still measured and how Jack was starting to make a bif of habit of being the thorn in the side of the country of his birth. The 'Granny' rule started to become a thing and we hear how it was received in 1986. Also - keep an ear out for a story about the Irish team hotel and how a large selection of German nudists got Jack Charlton excited for the wrong reasons! Part 3 coming next week!
