  • Thomas Donohoe was a master dyer in the calico printing industry. Thomas emigrated to Brazil in 1894. He organized football matches in Bangu (now a suburb of Rio de Janeiro) that year with fellow employees of the textile company Progresso Industrial Do Brazil. Charles Miller, who some others claim to have brought football to Brazil, arranged his first match in April of the following year in São Paulo. A monument, in Donohoe’s hometown of Busby, East Renfrewshire, was commissioned by the local council and installed in May 2022. The sculpture, designed and created by Kate Robinson, can be found in the carpark at Mary Young Place. Paul O'Kane M.S.P. raised awareness of the project by submitting a motion to the Scottish Parliament. (en)
  • Thomas Donohoe (East Renfrewshire, 25 de janeiro de 1863 - Rio de Janeiro, 2 de abril de 1925) foi um escocês pioneiro do futebol no Brasil. Surgiu na Fábrica Bangu, que existia no bairro de mesmo nome na zona oeste da cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Alguns britânicos que trabalhavam no local, especialmente o escocês Thomas Donohoe, apresentaram o esporte para os brasileiros, trazendo bolas de futebol ao Brasil, isto ainda no século XIX, com a primeira partida sendo disputada em 1894, embora a história "oficial" do início do futebol brasileiro não registre este fato, que conta com farta documentação reunida pelo historiador Carlos Molinari. A versão que indica Charles Miller como introdutor do futebol no Brasil procura desqualificar este momento, dizendo que os jogos realizados antes não o foram em campo com as medidas oficiais, nem com uma organização que previa, entre outras coisas, uniformes às equipes.
