Davy McArdle R.I.P.

Dundalk FC is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of former player Davy McArdle, who died peacefully yesterday.

A gifted right winger, Davy joined Dundalk as a teenager in 1960 and quickly made his mark. Blessed with pace, close control and an outstanding delivery from wide areas, he was a player who loved to take on a full-back and excite the crowd. Over four seasons at Oriel Park, he contributed to one of the most memorable periods in the club’s history.

Davy was part of the squad that won the League title in 1962–63, and his performances also earned him representative honours at youth and amateur international level.

After his time at Dundalk, Davy continued his career with Portadown and later Drumcondra.

On behalf of everyone at Dundalk FC, we extend our heartfelt condolences to his wife Dinah, his son Paul, his daughter Ciara, and all of Davy’s family and friends.

May Davy Rest in Peace.
