Declan O’ Connell – Plaque Unveiling
18th January 2010 By Munster Rugby Supporters Club
Declan O’ Connell Former Chairman of MRSC. In September of last year the club learned of the passing of one of the driving forces and founding members of the Munster Rugby Supporters Club. Declan O’Connell presided as Chairman of the Supporters Club in it’s early days, stepping down in 2004-2005 season. Declan was always vocal in support of Munster and indeed in support of the Supporters Club and due to his efforts in the early years the club became firmly established. Declan rarely missed a match, home or away, and indeed became known far and wide while travelling to support Munster, Ireland and The Lions. Declan was also President and a tremendous clubman of Charleville R.F.C. To commemorate Declan’s committment to the Supporters Club and Munster there will be a plaque unveiled in the presence of Declan’s family in the Supporters Club bar in the West Stand prior to the match on Friday night at 7 o’clock.
