As a result, the FAI have opened a โVirtual Book of Condolenceโ where football supporters can express their sympathies to the family of the late Jack Charlton.
FAI President Gerry McAnaney said:
โThe national outpouring of grief since Jackโs death was announced on Saturday morning has been phenomenal and reflective of the esteem in which Jack was held here in Ireland.
โWe are offering Ireland fans the opportunity to extend their sympathies to Jackโs family online and to show the family just how much Jack meant to all of us here in Ireland.โ
The Book of Condolenceย will remain live until Monday, 27 July when the FAI will share the messages with the Charlton family.
