Larne boy scores hat-trick of Manchester United heroes
Larne High School pupil Jonathan Norrell, 12, and his Dad Dean Hodge travelled to Manchester last week for Manchester United’s game against Hull.
While the game ended with no goals, the pair thought they’d scored a hat-trick after a trio of Manchester United legends wandered into their hotel.

“I didn’t know where to look but they were lovely and happy to pose for the fans.
“My son Jonathan got a photo with them, we were so excited and it’s a great memory.
“We’re going to get the photo framed and we will definitely be back!”
