25 Sporting Greats Who Attended The Oasis Concerts At Croke Park This Weekend

It was a truly unforgettable weekend in Dublin as Oasis played two sold-out concerts at Croke Park. The weather was glorious, the bucket hats were out and the nostalgia cut deep as Oasis played their first gigs in Ireland in ages.

For people of a certain vintage - aged 35 to 50, let's say - the gigs were heaven on earth: two hours of pure singalong emotion.

As it happened, the gigs were attended by a ridiculous number of sporting greats - both from this country and the UK. Here are just some of them.

Both photographed by Adam Cullen on Saturday. It's the first we've seen of Duffer since leaving the Shels job and it's great to see him in a red bucket hat.

Roddy was sizzling in a Hawaiian shirt, as you'd expect.

Crouch was on punditry duty at Villa Park on Saturday for the 12.30pm kickoff but made a stealthy exit in order to be in Croke Park for the gig.

From all reports, he fully enjoyed himself.
