Bernard Flynn (born 26 June 1965) is an Irish former Gaelic footballer who played for the Meath county team, usually at corner forward, in the 1980s and early 1990s on the teams managed by Sean Boylan. He attended secondary school at St Mary's of Drogheda and played club football for St Colmcille's of East Meath until the 1991 season, when he moved to St Joseph's in Laois and then to Mullingar Shamrocks in Westmeath. During his playing career he won two senior All-Ireland medals, in 1987 and 1988, as well as five Leinster medals, three National League medals, a Centenary Cup medal and two All Star awards, and with Colm O'Rourke and Brian Stafford he formed a full forward line widely regarded as one of the best of all time. He later worked as a GAA pundit for RTÉ, managed Mullingar Shamrocks and in January 2021 became manager of the Meath under-20 county team.
