Gutted to see this man leave but delighted that he’s back at Snr football. Can’t thank him enough for looking after me and giving me an opportunity to coach and manage at international level. Will miss my mate everyday! What a man! ❤️
I still often think of the great times we had both on and off the pitch.Them unbelievable memories will never leave me and I’m sure will never leave everyone who was lucky to be associated with you. Sadly missed and forever in my thoughts.
Rest in Peace TB ❤️
9 years gone today. Feels like yesterday my Beautiful Mum was taken from us. Not one day passes without her in my thoughts. Miss you so much Mum. Always near me I know. ❤️
Shocked & saddened to hear of one of the nicest men I’ve ever known. They say god only takes the best young and by god he was that. RIP my friend, my Gaffer. Forever in my thoughts 💔😢

Finishing exercise We done tonight with our Academy lads. Starts off with a 3v2 in the middle and then finishes off with cross from wide areas. Great also for defenders dealing with crosses from wide areas.

15 years married today and 25 together.. wow! It’s been a proper married life together. Lots of ups and lots of downs but the main thing is we are still as strong as ever! Here’s to many more

Fantastic 10 days in total with both squads U17s and U19s away on Camp. 3 games in total between both Squads along with 8 training sessions. 2 wins and 1 defeat so pretty positive in terms of what we got from both camps.
My father’s body will be brought to his sister Jean’s at 3 Lancaster Terrace at approximately 7:00pm this evening.
The funeral procession will leave there at 9:30am to St Patrick’s chapel for mass at 10:00am on Saturday 26th March.
Can’t thank this young man enough
@ciaranmcvarnock
. My son has been struggling to get motivated to train and it’s not like him as he loves his boxing. I told Ciaran and he offered his help with him today. Great things will happen to great people. Thanks C. 👍🏻🥊❤️
If you are a football person please join the challenge of posting a football photo. Just one picture, no description. Please copy the text in your status, post a picture and look at some great memories/pictures. Missing football so very much!
Congratulations to

, his coaching/backroom staff and the players of our u17 side on their qualification to the Elite stages of the Euros. With Serbia currently winning 6-0, it's now safe to call it.

Today will be a very sad and emotional day not only for the family of Tommy but the Irish league. A true gentleman gone to soon. I will miss you TB and thank you for being a great friend and a great person. Look after him in heaven Mum. 💔
Happy Birthday to my assistant manager
@Andy_Waterworth
today. Still scoring goals like he was 10 years ago.. 35 playing like a 25 year old. Some man he is. Enjoy your day Coach. Xo
Tonight was our last training game for our
@NorthernIreland
U17s against
@CrusadersFC
20s before we head to England for camp nxt wk.The 3 training sessions and two games over the course of a few weeks was fantastic learning for this group. Well done all! ⚽️💚
Wasn’t to be today for Flynn in the Final. Great fight all the same. We are so proud of him. This weekend fighting in the All Ireland’s he will gain so much experience in every way. Winning and losing he still learns. Thanks for all the good luck messages folks.🥊💚
Our Children are suffering badly in this pandemic. My young lad was flying and showing great potential in his boxing. He had just won the Antrim’s and the Ulsters and was being primed for the all Ireland’s. Hast had a fight or been in his gym in almost 16 mths. 😢😤🥊
What a fantastic week for these young men and myself personally. Being around Ian and his staff was a great experience for us all. Future is definitely bright.
Patience in passing, stay calm and composed in building to look for a forward positive pass to attack in the offensive zone and when it comes off it’s brilliant.👌🏻 Another positive night on the pitch with our NI Uefa Academy boys! 3rd week back and always improving!
