PositionForward

Having followed him in the illustrious list of Arsenal No. 9s, Niall became the Republic of Ireland's all-time record goalscorer when he passed Frank Stapleton's tally of 20 October 2001.

After playing midfield for Dublin in the 1983 All-Ireland Minor Hurling final, Niall made his Football League debut for Arsenal in 1985 and his tremendous strength and aerial ability has made him the focal point of his team's attacks. Maintaining a good scoring record throughout his career, he moved to Manchester City in 1990 for £800,000. The big man became a great favourite at Maine Road and is now hero-worshipped on Wearside following his £1.3million move to Sunderland when he rejoined his former City boss Peter Reid in 1996.

The years of honest endeavour now mean he is regularly troubled by a back injury. What can not be doubted is his generosity. In May 2002, a crowd of 35,702 attended his testimonial match between Sunderland and the Republic. Niall donated all the proceeds - believed to be around £1million - to children's charities.

Niall returned to Sunderland as chairman and manager in July 2006.
