'Promise this is my last' - Gormley signs new Reds deal

Cliftonville record goalscorer Joe Gormley has signed a contract extension which will keep him at Solitude until the end of the 2026-27 season.
Gormley has scored 309 goals in 574 appearances for the north Belfast side and netted 15 times during the 2025-26 campaign.
The 36-year-old considered retiring at the end of the 2024-25 season before a rich vein of form - which included a winner in the BetMcLean Cup final - led to him signing a new deal.
Writing on X, Gormley said "I promise this is my last" with a glancing eyes emoji.
The forward made his Reds debut in 2011 and won Irish Premiership titles in 2013 and 2014 before a two-year stint with Peterborough United between 2015 and 2017.
Since returning to Cliftonville, he has won two BetMcLean Cups, the Irish Cup and the County Antrim Shield.
News of Gormley's new deal follows confirmation that defender Jonny Addis is leaving Solitude after five seasons at the club.
