@patricej36 Drogheda Unitedโs star & crescent comes from the townโs 13th-century coat of arms, granted by King John in 1210 โ centuries before it became an Islamic/Ottoman symbol.
The 1847 Ottoman famine aid to Drogheda (food ships sent by Sultan Abdรผlmecid) later gave it extra meaning.
@PeteFarrell14#ShamrockRovers we're formed in Ringsend and take their name from Shamrock Avenue, my late father inlaw was from there and was an avid supporter.
