Description

Ireland debut as a teenager with Home Farm, and had just turned 21 by the time he helped the all-amateur side win the FAI Cup in 1975. It set the tone for a hugely-successful playing career on either side of the border which he combined with his day job as a schoolteacher. Dermot took his winning formula into management, leading three different clubs to league titles, before walking away for good in 2010.

After subsequently relocating to Lanzarote, where he opened a bar in his name alongside his wife Jane Martin, he discovered from a customer that, just like he had done with Celtic, his father Peter had turned down a cross-channel move, to Leeds United. That stirred an interest in having a record of his own career, with that desire further fuelled by the sudden passing of his son Alan in May 2021.

Neil O'Riordan is The Irish Sun's Chief Sports Writer. Two-time winner of the Newsbrands Sports Writer of the Year (Popular) award, he was the ghostwriter for Dermot's column with the newspaper which ran from 2000 to 2017.
