Will Sewell is back and another great result for Largs, now sitting 7th in the table and looking up. 


Arthurlie not a easy place to go to and they would have been expecting their new manager to coax a result out of them. After the game though the new manager resigned, is that the shortest ever a manager has been in a job ? 
Is the top level of Scottish football boring? Over these past months watching highlights from the Premier League very few games have excited me, no players that get you off your seat. 
You now have Dundee Utd appointing Jim Goodwin as manager. The Jim Goodwin that Aberdeen deemed surplus to requirements after they were beaten by Darvel. I don’t think Jim is going to bring a brand of football that will bring the United fans back in and get them out of relegation trouble anytime soon. 
With his first game being against his old club Aberdeen no doubt he would have been really up for that but a 3-1 defeat does not bode well. 
At the weekend I played for Northern Ireland over 60’s against Wales and against England in the annual Tri Nations tournament held at Leicester. First up was Wales, 2-0 victory. Second game was a 0-0 against England, not what we wanted but good enough for us to share the trophy with England, now 3 years in a row we have been winners. One other ex Largs player called in due to injury was Frank Lovering yes like me he has a Irish granny. 
Here’s me thinking Manchester United were finally getting it right but what a shocking defeat against Liverpool. Did they just not turn up or were Liverpool that good? 7-0 certainly wasn’t a result anyone expected. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall in the United dressing room after the game. 
The death of Allan McGraw saddened me. Allan was a true icon of Scottish football. During my time with Morton Allan was the reserve team manager and it was obvious he knew what he was talking about. He spoke to me after I was released there and encouraged me when I went on trial to a few clubs after my release. I met him regularly over the years. a really nice man . Great that he saw the stand at Cappielow being named after him.
