NORTHSIDE ABC has shut after three decades of turning out champions.
“I’m 65 now and I’ve been running up and down the country every weekend,” said Joe Pennington, who formed the club and was head coach.
“I don’t need it anymore. I’ve been at championships every week, I’ve got four pro journeymen and my other amateur coaches aren’t that reliable. I can’t do this running around like a lunatic anymore. I had four days on the road this month and came home knackered. My missus has had enough as well. We’ve been together since we were 14, 15, and she stayed with me all this time even though I used to be a knobhead.
