William James Munroe (28 November 1933 – 10 August 2024) was an Irish professional footballer. He made his only appearance for the Republic of Ireland national team on 28 October 1953, in a 4–0 win against Luxembourg in a World Cup qualifying game at Dalymount Park.
A schoolboy international, he began his club career with Shamrock Rovers in 1952 where he was part of a great Milltown team, popularly known as Coad's Colts. In his second season, he won the League of Ireland. In November 1953 RCF Paris sought Munroe's signature.
He signed for Ards F.C. in January 1956. The following 1956–57 season was his best, as he scored 37 goals in 38 appearances. His last season was the unforgettable 1957–58 one when Ards won their one and only Irish League Championship. He only played in 15 games for Ards that season before he was transferred to Bristol City in the English Football League Division Two in December 1957 for £1,500. Munroe only played one league game for Bristol, however, before returning to Northern Ireland with Distillery.
In October 1959 he signed for Dundalk F.C. and scored a record 19 league goals that season. He returned to Ards in the 1962–63 season for a brief 12 game spell. Munroe emigrated from his native Dublin to Toronto in 1990.
Munroe died in Dublin on 10 August 2024, at the age of 90.
