"Brian was a club-man first," said PRO Dermot Daly. "He's known for his prowess in the 80s with Dublin. But we know him as a club-man. He's a former chairman, he managed juvenile teams, senior teams and even back in January, he put his hand up to be the adult senior games director. So do you know, a total club-man, he wouldn't want it any other way. Tonight's definitely going ahead."Mullins joined the St Vincent's club as a 16-year-old but, having gone on to represent Leinster in rugby and cricket at under-19 level, it was clear that the Clontarf youngster was a widely-skilled sports-man. Gaelic football was his number one though, and in an illustrious career that saw him win five All-Irelands (incl. one club with St Vincent's,) two All-Stars and two National Leagues, he became widely renowned as one of the greatest midfielders ever. But his love for his club remained strong. And, perhaps, in that sense, it was a tweet from Philly McMahon that summed up this feisty character best. "Played a league game few years ago against St Vincents and I heard an umpire giving me stick. Turned around and it was Brian Mullins, a Dublin legend giving me stick! I was happy with that. Loved the way he played and how passionate he was about the game,even as an umpire. RIP." May the great man Rest in Peace. https://twitter.com/PhillyMcMahon/status/1575960629902716928 https://twitter.com/bernardbrogan/status/1575912284831895552 https://twitter.com/Vinniedub14/status/1575892403638407168 https://twitter.com/StVincentsGAA1/status/1575895878740500485 https://twitter.com/paul_hearty1/status/1575923823735513088 https://twitter.com/JeromeQuinn/status/1575952663904387073
