Michael Anthony Francis English made two mid-week appearances for The British & Irish Lions on the 1959 Tour of Australia and New Zealand.

He plied his club trade for Bohemians and then Lansdowne and was famed for his almost uniquely kick-dominated style.

He succeeded Jack Kyle in the Irish No 10 shirt and partnered Test Lion Andy Mulligan for many of his 16 Ireland caps.
