Mabel Winslow has been named a Dungannon Swifts superfan at an event held at the National Stadium at Windsor Park. The Danske Bank Premiership Superfan Award was launched back in February to recognise supporters who go the extra mile for their club.
Superfan nominations closed on 31st March 2018 with a total of 280 entries across all 12 Premiership clubs.
This superfan has been supporting the Swifts for more than 30 years in her own various ways.
She is totally dedicated to the club and it’s well respected Youth Academy where she helped out at the clubs summer camps and vountarily washes the towels for the Swifts first team after every single match. Mabel is a loyal traveller on the Swifts supporters bus, following her team all across the country to wherever they may be playing.
This season she has been quite ill and spent Christmas in hospital. This, however, did not stop her from supporting her team from her hospital bed armed with a pen, paper and a portable radio to keep track of all the Irish League games but most importantly Dungannon Swifts of course!
Friends and family were all delighted when she was well enough to attend the Bet McLean League Cup final and witness her beloved team making history by lifting the cup. She has been keeping her own scrapbook about the League Cup Final win and is still working away in the background to put it together exactly how she wants it!

Congratulations to Mabel from all at Dungannon Swifts, thoroughly deserved.
