Football, ice-cream, music.

Rory Fallon had three passions growing up and carved out a career in two of them.

Having grown up in a footballing family and with one of the top coaches in New Zealand as his dad, it was little surprise that a young Rory wanted to follow in his father’s footsteps.

He swapped the sun and surf of New Zealand for the cut and thrust of Barnsley and began learning his trade.

A three-year spell in Yorkshire was followed by time in Wiltshire and South Wales before he finally settled on Plymouth.

Never the most prolific, Rory was a team player who scored some sensational goals, none more so than a bullet header which took his country to only their second FIFA World Cup.

Once his playing career was done, he turned his attentions to making ice-cream but, as yet, hasn’t ventured into the music business. There is still time.

This is the story of Rory Fallon.
