Social Media reacts to RTE 'Boys in Green' documentary on Ireland under Jack Charlton

Ireland fans were consumed by a storm of nostalgia tonight thanks to RTE's 'Boys in Green' documentary following Irish football's golden era.

The documentary follows the Boys in Green under Jack Charlton - with the first part focusing on the famous Euro 1988 and Italia '90 World Cup finals that captured the imagination of the nation.

Including interviews from a host of players from the era, Charlton's backroom team and journalists, the documentary shines a fascinating light on the period with archival footage.

The characters of the time took fans through all the crucial moments, the crushing defeats and the euphoric highs in the journey back in time.
