Sligo Rovers were saddened to learn of the death of former Rovers and Celtic footballer Pat McCluskey at the age of 68.

The Scottish footballer was a member of the Sligo Rovers team that reached the 1970 FAI Cup Final  -the club’s first for 30 years.

He arrived as a 17-year-old, with Sean Fallon instrumental in the loan move to Rovers.

He also played 115 times for Celtic.

We send our condolences to his family and remember Pat for being part of our history. May he Rest In Peace.
