Gillespie guest at Cloughmills NISC

The Clough Glasgow Rangers Supporters Club hosted an enjoyable evening, where President of The Irish Football Association, Mr Jim Shaw was the guest speaker.

Local BBC pundit, Liam Beckett, conducted a superb interview with Gillespie, when Keith recounted stories about his early days with Northern Ireland and coming through the ‘Class of 92’ with Beckham, Scholes and the Nevilles at Old Trafford. He also entertained the audience when he talked about how Sir Alex Ferguson had reason to discipline him over an alleged breach of club discipline.

The club also highlighted to the audience their charity work in the community, where they regularly sponsor cross community and local Schools Football tournaments.

In fact in April of this year the club organised a coach trip to the Marie Curie Irish Cup Final where Ballymena United took on Glenavon at Windsor Park.

Profits of £400 from the trip were handed over on Saturday evening to Lady Juliette Frazer, Patron of the local Marie Curie group.

Jim Shaw congratulated the club on a fantastic 10 years of being part of the ‘Green and White Army’ and said he hoped they could perhaps “meet up in France on the summer of 2016 if the team continues to maintain the great run of results shown to date, in the European Qualifiers”

The evening then continued as Local MC and club member, Edwin McLaughlin, had the audience in raptures with his annual club review. Chairman Samuel Forsthe then helped present members with a small token gift to commemorate the activities of the past ten years.
