Bohemians legend Derek 'Mono' Monaghan was given a send off 'fitting for the man' as he was laid to rest on Tuesday.
The club legend passed away suddenly last week and his funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon.
Hundreds lined the street to celebrate the life of the Bohs legend with many lining out in club colours in an emotional afternoon in Cabra.
Club COO Daniel Lambert took to social media as he spoke about the special send off and also noted how Bohemians supporter and former Eurovision winner Johnny Logan sang an emotional rendition of Hold Me Now as 'Mono' was remembered.
He said: "Mono got a send off that was testament to the love he put out there A church that couldn’t hold half the crowd, flares, flags, Michael’s D’s aide the camp, hold me now sung by Jonny, & the entire bohs family united by a special character that we’ll never see the likes of again"
While former Bohemians steward Sam Henderson also paid tribute.
He said: "Only knew Mono vaguely from doing a bit of stewarding in Dalymount when I was 18 but seemed like a top bloke. Fair play to the Bohs fans and loi fans for the send off today, heard it was fitting for the man."
While comedian PJ Gallagher added: "Bohs fans, there’s nothing like them. I’ve never seen anything like that send off for Mono today. The way the fans supported each other, the way Mono’s family spoke about him and the club, the way Johnny Logan sang. The peoples club, the big club. RIP Mono."
