Ex-Linfield captain shares hilarious modelling photos from yesteryear

Talk about a Throwback Thursday!

It's not every day you see some Irish League footballers glamming it up for the cameras.

But that's what Michael Gault, Mark McAllister and Sean Ward did when they were asked to act as models for a photoshoot several years ago.

They donned the sophisticated suit and pullover combo as part of a promotional shoot involving Umbro.

The nostalgic pics were shared by former Linfield captain Gault on his Facebook page today.

"Michael's mum Nuala found the photos," joked Ward, who was playing for Glentoran when the photos were taken, while McAllister was at Dungannon Swifts.

"It was some promotional thing with Umbro, from what I remember. It must have been over 10 years ago.

"Some memories, but I think they could have fitted the three of us into the blazer I was wearing!

"I remember we went around Belfast afterwards thinking we were George Best, we had it all. But just take a look at us!"
