The Rocky films are Beth Stafford’s inspiration for the cover of tomorrow’s Gazette for our Premiership clash against Glenavon, with Jordan Jenkins in the role of the eponymous fighter.
Inside, the 1923 Committee consider the current debate around the number of games that clubs are playing and John Grayden looks at local TV coverage as well as the doomed Casement Park project. There are tributes to Dermot Keely, returning to the Oval to promote his autobiography, from Jim Cleary, Ronnie McFall and former club secretary Gordon Scott, Matthew Brown gets the lowdown on goalkeeper Dan Gyollai, Brian McClelland’s One Season Wonder is Neil Candlish, Philip Stevenson’s Souvenir is the autograph of a player whose short time at the Oval brought an incredible goal scoring record and, in the first of a two part story, Henry Muldrew muses on Four Four Two magazine's choices for the world’s top 100 grounds.
Plus the thoughts of Declan Devine, a look at our opponents Glenavon, an assessment of our recent games in words and pictures from Norman Ternahan and Thomas Sewell, This Week Then, the Ex-Men which follows the fortunes of some of our former players, news from around the club and all the stats.
