Monaghan United are holding a special opening ceremoney tomorrow night to name two of the rooms in our new clubhouse. The Billy Bagster Lounge and the Greg Turley Suite will commemorate two people who contributed massively to soccer in Monaghan and in this region.
Greg was a collosas of football in this region and a genuinely decent guy. His passing was felt by all in Monaghan and the naming is fitting tribute to his contribution.
Billy himself will be there tomorrow night. Its hard for any EL fan of more than a few years standing to think of Monaghan and not think of Billy. One of the great gentlemen of the game, it is just reward that the new club bar will be named after a man who brought so much enjoyment to the people who will use it.
Anyone fancies a spin up for a pint on the border, the night kicks off at 7:30.

billy bagster is a legend from his managerial days in abbeycartron in the early 80s so i am delighted to see that he is honoured by yourselves.
