What is recorded here

Roden Street in County Antrim still carries the ghost of a boy who ran faster than shadow itself. Joe Bambrick lived there from 1905 to 1983, and in 1930 he scored a double hat trick for Ireland. The blue plaque marks the house where that impossible speed first learned the shape of men and distance.
