Eamon Dunphy was a Irish football player. He played for Manchester United, previous clubs include York City, Millwall, Charlton Athletic and Reading, England. He played 23 times for the Irish national team.
After retiring from football, Dunphy went into broadcasting, regularly appearing to analyse matches on RTÉ television. He has also had a prominent radio career, and was the original host of the popular current affairs show The Last Word on TodayFM.
In 2003, Dunphy was hired by TV3 to host their new Friday night chat show, entitled The Dunphy Show. Pitted head-to-head with RTÉ's The Late Late Show, Dunphy's show lost the highly publicised "ratings war", and was cancelled before its original run was to conclude.
He is also author of the book More than a game, and ghost-wrote the autobiography of Ireland and Manchester United football player Roy Keane.
