Carl Frampton the inspiration behind beloved Crues title success

He is not just a supporter, he is an inspiration.

Crusaders-mad Carl Frampton has been inspirational to the Irish League Team, who made history by winning the title this week.

The Crues retained the title for the first time ever and will be presented with the Gibson Cup at Seaview tomorrow following their clash with Coleraine.

Captain John Coates claims the World champion has proved an inspiration for the squad and the historic success.

“It’s incredible to have Carl Frampton supporting us. He is known all over the world and is always putting our club in the spotlight. It’s great when you see him at games because you want to put in a performance for him. He is a real inspiration to the team.

“He texted me the morning after we won the title to say well done to all the lads.We are all proud of what he has achieved and I know he is proud that Crusaders have won the title again.”
