Just got back from Belfast & the club I use was asking if we've got any Northern Ireland lads on our books as they want me to try & get a shirt signed for them to put up in their clubhouse!! Any one know if we have or not?? Cheers!

There is a lad in the youths: Josh Barton, I think his name is.

I went to school with someone called Josh Barton.

He was an overweight, wannabe thespian. But he once starred in a Funeral For a Friend video with my girlfriend, who I didn't know at the time. Small world.

Thanks,yes,just found out that Josh Barton is indeed from Lurgan....result!!! Not sure how I go about getting in touch with him but I'll get a home shirt & take it from there!!!

Wish they'd have asked me when Steve Davis & Aaron Hughes were with us!!

Maybe, if you ask the club, they could get you in touch with Peter McParland, too.  Getting something signed by him would be pretty special.

He'll probably end up playing for the Republic if he makes it as we are developing a nack of cherrypicking from The Norths youth teams.
