Terry McFlynn

Terry McFlynn was born in Magherafelt, County Derry, and developed into a midfielder through Queens Park Rangers before finding his creative voice at Margate, where a thirty-five-yard volley on debut became local legend. He captained Northern Ireland's Under-21 side while playing in England, bridging the distance between his birthplace and the clubs that gave him a stage. The facts preserve his matches and contracts, but they do not say whether he still remembers the smell of turf at Loftus Road or the sudden heat of Hartsdown Park after that impossible strike.
