Taking stock

Cliftonville’s Sports Direct Premiership fixture with Carrick Rangers may have been postponed, but that didn’t stop fans and players alike supporting the Club’s Christmas Appeal.

A Foodbank Collection was to be held at the turnstiles in the countdown to yesterday’s kick-off but, despite the game not going ahead over safety concerns amid the impact of Storm Darragh, our partners at Foodstock were still able to take receipt of a number of goods from the first team squad and fans who had made early contributions.

It is naturally regrettable that the event was not able to proceed at full-scale, however anybody interested in lending further backing to the cause is encouraged to contact Paul Doherty by emailing paul.doherty@foodstockcharity.com or by phoning 07794304259.
