The iconic goalkeeper Elisha Scott died on this day in 1959, aged 65. Probably the most famous Liverpool FC player in the pre-WW2 era, Scott spent astonishing 22 years at the club and hard earned his legendary status. #LFC fans remember Elisha and he'll always be a hero!

Celtic won the league last night. No #NornIron players at the minute (Brendan only got Schoolboy caps), so here we have Allen McKnight celebrating after winning the Cup back in 1988. Don't think even he knew he'd be playing that day due to Packy Bonner's injury.

Somewhat overshadowed by Hollywood/Wrexham's promotion from League Two as runners-up was Stockport County's title win!
Among their squad is ex- #NornIron Under-21 international Callum Camps (29 apps/4 goals). Here we also see a centre-forward loaded all-time #GAWA - #Hatters XI

Some talent here! #GAWA #NornIron

On this day in 1974 A guard of honour from Northern Ireland to Scotland for reaching the World Cup.
Unfortunately, they weren't as magnanimous within the game as they beat Scotland 1-0 thanks a Tommy Cassidy goal.

Central defender Mark Williams played 58 games for Wimbledon up to 28/5/02, scoring eight goals and we welcome the Northern Ireland international to WOPA 🤝

So here we have #NornIron 's All-Time Scottish Premier Division XI (1975-1998). Quite telling that Bestie, Mark Caughey and Gerry McMahon make the team despite having made just a handful of appearances.
The #GAWA 's #SPL players from tomorrow ...
