Meet the Eglinton squad

Manager Sean Hargan gives us his account of his squad as they aim to secure their first piece of silverware in a number of years.

Joe Robertson (Goalkeeper) - Joe is a promising young keeper; he’s a great shot stopper, he is very commanding in goal and has excellent hands.

Kieran McGlinchey (Defender) - Kieran is a great reader of the game. Solid in defence, very quick and always gives his all for the team. He can play both full-back and centre-half.

Aidy O’Kane (Defender) - Aidy is a strong young defender. He’s maturing with every game. Likes to get forward and has great recovery. Can also play in midfield.

Nathan McNerlin (Defender) - This right-back is a very tough tackling little player. Never gives his opponents any time or space on the ball and is equally as comfortable in midfield.

Shaun Whoriskey (Defender) - Shaun is an old fashioned centre-half who takes no nonsense. Nicknamed ‘The Quiet Man’ and gives the team 100 per cent every time. Has also popped up with the odd goal.

John Robertson (Defender) - JR is injured at present and probably won’t recover in time for the final. He will be a big loss, as JR is a strong powerful player with great motivation and fire in his belly.

Steven McCloskey (Defender) - Stephen has been at the club many years and is probably one of the toughest tacklers in the game. Always gives his all and has scored a few goals this season.

Gavin McShane (Midfielder) - Gavin is a very talented midfielder who scores goals. He is a very strong and skilful player and is the driving force of the team a great all round player.

Mark Duffy (Midfielder) - Mark is captain of the club and is a great leader and a very reliable. He works extremely hard for the team, he’s a great tackler and a very strong player who covers every blade of grass.

Peter Doherty (Midfielder) - Peter is a tricky midfielder who deliveries an excellent ball with both feet. A great dead ball specialist and on his day can change a game in minutes.

Johnny Hume (Midfielder) - Johnny is the joker of the pack, a very skilful pacy player that likes to shoot on sight at goal. The club’s leading goalscorer this season who on his day can tear defences apart.

Noel O’Donnell (Midfielder) - Noel comes out of retirement now and again. He is a fantastic player who has been there and done it at a much higher level. A great motivator and inspiration to all the younger players in any team he’s involved with.

James Boyd (Striker) - Barry is the longest serving member of the club who over his career has scored loads of goals. He’s very good in the air and is a poacher inside the box. A great stalwart of the club.

Colum Deery (Striker) - Colum joined Eglinton mid-season from Ardmore, he’s a very hard working forward who creates space for other around him. He can be dangerous in front of goal.
