Jim Beglin Playing Career
Jim Beglin at Shamrock Rovers
Jim played schoolboy football in his native city with Bolton and Waterford Bohs before joining Shamrock Rovers in 1980. He went on to spend 3 years at Milltown, making 4 appearances in Europe and scoring one goal. In 1982 Jim was part of the League of Ireland XI that toured New Zealand where they played the New Zealand national football team.
Jim Beglin at Liverpool
Jim was the last signing made by Liverpool boss Bob Paisley when he joined Shamrock Rovers for GB£20,000 in May 1983. He was gradually brought into the first team over the next 18 months by Joe Fagan, before being given regular games in the left-back slot by new player-boss Kenny Dalglish as a replacement for Alan Kennedy in the 1985 – 86 season.
Jim made his debut in the left-sided midfield position on 10 November 1984 in the 1–1 league draw with Southampton at Anfield. He scored his first goal for the club 5 months later on 10 April 1985 in the 4–0 European Cup Semi-final first-leg victory over Greek side Panathinaikos at Anfield. Jim’s 85th-minute strike put the tie out of reach for the Greek club.
Liverpool won the second leg 1–0 to set up a showdown in the final with Italian giants Juventus at the Heysel Stadium in Belgium however a retaining wall collapsed during a riot at the “neutral” end, and 39 Juventus supporters died, in what came to be known as the Heysel Stadium Disaster.
Liverpool won the League championship and FA Cup, pipping Merseyside rivals Everton to both, with Jim picking up medals for each. He also started playing for the Republic of Ireland, picking up the first of 15 caps.
Then it all went horribly wrong for Jim, just seven months after lifting the league and cup double, his leg was badly broken following a mistimed tackle from Everton’s Gary Stevens in the League Cup Fifth Round game in January 1987. Former boss Bob Paisley said that it was one of the worst leg breaks he had ever seen, joking that he would break his own leg to prove a point to the FA.
Moreover, Liverpool defender Alan Hansen said that the tackle was “a mile high and an hour late”. Recovering from the break, Beglin sustained a knee cartilage injury playing for Liverpool’s reserves in October 1988 which effectively finished his time at Anfield.
Jim Beglin at Leeds United
In June 1989, Jim joined Leeds United, where he helped the club to become Second Division champions and spent periods on loan with both Plymouth Argyle and Blackburn Rovers before a recurrence of his knee injury forced him into early retirement in 1991 when still only 27.
