South Shields confirm defender's remarkable feat

South Shields have confirmed defender Gary Liddle played every minute of every game this season.

This amounts to 3,780 minutes played, at the age of 36.

Liddle has played a crucial role in the Mariners’ promotion campaign, which saw them win the NPL Premier Division by eight points.

This run also included two goals, against Warrington Town and Liversedge. He also helped his side keep 18 clean sheets over the course of the season.

Goalkeeper Myles Boney can also boast this record, and he also played in a few more cup matches as well.
