Larne FC manager Tiernan Lynch tells i’s Mark Douglas how their strategic relationship with Newcastle is pushing both clubs onBottom of the second-tier Championship, with large parts of their Inver Park ground condemned as unsafe, the club had become almost an embarrassment to the local community.
“Newcastle see the benefit in Larne being two-fold: one it’s the young players they can scout and recruit. An initial meeting in March last year saw Lynch and his team visit Newcastle on a fact-finding mission and the club’s plans impressed Ashworth. Paul Midgeley, Newcastle’s head of scouting recruitment, and academy director Steve Harper travelled to Country Antrim to see it first hand in the months that followed and after further talks a decision was taken earlier this summer to formalise the arrangement.
Newcastle’s head of coach development Jack Ross has been in Northern Ireland to mentor some of Larne’s coaches while Midgeley has been working with their scouts. Two “bounce games” between the sides are being set up to assess what level Larne’s underage sides are at and further fixtures are in the pipeline. A link-up between the two women’s teams is also being worked on.
