Description
This is an incredibly rare and historically significant vintage black and white Irish soccer press photograph. The high-intensity action shot captures Shamrock Rovers forward Neil Poutch battling mid-air for possession against St Patrick’s Athletic midfield legend Pat Fenlon. This exact image documents a monumental moment in Irish football history: the very first League of Ireland match ever played at the RDS Arena on September 30, 1990. Fenlon is shown wearing the highly collectible, iconic red St Pat’s kit sponsored by “Peat Briquettes.” The back of the photo provides pristine provenance, featuring the official National Union of Journalists (N.U.J.) media credentials ink stamp from legendary regional photojournalist Ken Finegan of Drogheda. A museum-grade addition for any serious League of Ireland, Shamrock Rovers, or St Pat’s heritage collector.
