Helping hands

Regardless of how you followed Cliftonville’s victory over Carrick Rangers on Saturday, you will have been the beneficiary of at least one fellow supporter’s selflessness.

Volunteers are quite rightly heralded as the heartbeat of our Football Club and they are the subject of the latest chapter in our Solitude Snapshots series.

Whether you were lucky enough to be at the game, watched our live stream from the comfort of home or kept track of proceedings via our Twitter updates, your matchday experience was significantly enhanced because others gave up their time on your behalf and, as a busy opening month of action drew to a close, we wanted to say thank you to everyone whose contribution has been so greatly appreciated by members of the Red Army near and far.
