Ex-Premier League manager Garry Monk brings house down at Belfast coaches course with Brendan Rodgers story

Former Swansea City player and manager Garry Monk used a CPD coaching course at Queen's University's Dub sporting complex on Saturday to share his footballing experiences and announce he's ready to get back into the game.

Monk, who captained the Welsh club as they moved through the four divisions to take their place in England's top flight, shared his thoughts with around 60 coaches, who included Coleraine's Oran Kearney, Dundela's Niall Currie and Ballyclare Comrades' Stephen Small.

“One day I was a player and the next in charge of, not only the team, but the whole club,” recalled a smiling Monk.
