On the write track
Congratulations to Paddy McLaughlin, who has been named Reavey Solicitors Manager of the Month for January by the NI Football Writers’ Association.
Cliftonville overcame Larne, Dundela, Linfield, Glenavon and Ballymena United during an unbeaten spell that yielded a fifth such accolade for McLaughlin, who commented: “It’s a pleasure to win this trophy once again.
“It was a good month and, up until this point, it has been a good season. We’ve gone beneath the radar until now, but that’s no longer possible.
“The boys have been superb. They’re a credit to themselves and a credit to the Club. I’m just collecting this trophy on their behalf.”
