Seventy six years ago today Ireland became a republic

On this day, April 18, 1949 Ireland became a republic and was no longer a member of the Commonwealth.

Are Irish citizens born before April 18, 1949 eligible or entitled to a British passport?

It seems they have to be born prior to 1949. And yet if one’s grandparents were Irish it allows the offspring to play at international football for Ireland.
