John Tierney made his mark at the weekend with a hat-trick for Muirend Athletic against GSC, turning a difficult start into a standout personal performance.

He’s only played a handful of games this season, but three goals and a big impact meant it was the right time to give him his own feature — a simple striker’s story told in his own words.
