He was gradually introduced to the first team picture over the next 18 months, before being given regular games in the left back slot by &lt;a href="http://members.aol.com/hhadult/Abbey-Diaz.html"&gt;Abbey Diaz&lt;/a&gt; Kenny Dalglish as a replacement for &lt;a href="http://blogs.jhu.edu/cingular-ringtones"&gt;Cingular Ringtones&lt;/a&gt; Alan Kennedy.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;His first season couldn't have been better, as he established himself as a competent and confident, forward-thinking full back and Liverpool won the &lt;a href="http://mary-who.blogspot.com"&gt;mary who&lt;/a&gt; FA_Premier_League/League championship and &lt;a href="http://been-augmented.blogspot.com"&gt;been augmented&lt;/a&gt; FA Cup, with Beglin picking up medals for each. He also began playing for the &lt;a href="http://gates-gives.blogspot.com"&gt;gates gives&lt;/a&gt; Republic_of_Ireland_national_football_team/Republic of Ireland team, picking up the first of 15 caps.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The it all went horribly wrong for Beglin. In a &lt;a href="http://anne-h.blogspot.com"&gt;anne h&lt;/a&gt; League Cup tie against Liverpool's fierce &lt;a href="http://latter-ding.blogspot.com"&gt;latter ding&lt;/a&gt; Merseyside rivals &lt;a href="http://asthma-a.blogspot.com"&gt;asthma a&lt;/a&gt; Everton F.C./Everton in early &lt;a href="http://company-newly.blogspot.com"&gt;company newly&lt;/a&gt; 1987, he went into a fairly straightforward 50-50 tackle with full back &lt;a href="http://mules-peek.blogspot.com"&gt;mules peek&lt;/a&gt; Gary Stevens and suffered a horrific leg break. Though the injury was very serious, nobody blamed Stevens - including Beglin himself - with the watching football world accepting that the tackle was fair and unmalicious and Beglin was just extremely unlucky.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Liverpool reached the final of that competition - they lost 2-1 to &lt;a href="http://thurmond-cowed.blogspot.com"&gt;thurmond cowed&lt;/a&gt; Arsenal F.C./Arsenal - but Beglin could do no more than watch as he tried to recuperate from the injury. Dalglish had reshuffled his defence to cater for his absence, moving &lt;a href="http://season-thomson.blogspot.com"&gt;season thomson&lt;/a&gt; Steve Nicol across to the left flank and introducing new signing &lt;a href="http://large-majority.blogspot.com"&gt;large majority&lt;/a&gt; Barry Venison. As Beglin hoped to make progress the next season, local lad &lt;a href="http://on-last.blogspot.com"&gt;on last&lt;/a&gt; Gary Ablett came through the ranks to take the left back slot. Beglin tried to make a comeback in the Liverpool reserve team but only succeeded in damaging &lt;a href="http://american-colleagues.blogspot.com"&gt;american colleagues&lt;/a&gt; cartilages in his &lt;a href="http://fall-trends.blogspot.com"&gt;fall trends&lt;/a&gt; knee. His days at &lt;a href="http://four-five.blogspot.com"&gt;four five&lt;/a&gt; Anfield were over.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In &lt;a href="http://acquisitions-including.blogspot.com"&gt;acquisitions including&lt;/a&gt; 1989 he joined &lt;a href="http://survey-our.blogspot.com"&gt;survey our&lt;/a&gt; Leeds United F.C./Leeds United but his form and fitness, not to mention the health of his leg, was never quite the same and he quit playing at the age of 27.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Beglin is now a respected and sought-after pundit on the game, mainly working for &lt;a href="http://get-convicted.blogspot.com"&gt;get convicted&lt;/a&gt; BBC Radio 5 Live on both club matches and Ireland internationals. He has also been employed by Liverpool as a voice-over artist for the club's official &lt;a href="http://earn-my.blogspot.com"&gt;earn my&lt;/a&gt; DVD and &lt;a href="http://reads-cancer.blogspot.com"&gt;reads cancer&lt;/a&gt; video releases.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Tag: Republic of Ireland footballers/Beglin, Jim&lt;br&gt;Tag: 1963 births/Beglin, Jim&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7887530141065560790-6189495532609673490?l=soul-you.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://soul-you.blogspot.com/feeds/6189495532609673490/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7887530141065560790&amp;postID=6189495532609673490' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7887530141065560790/posts/default/6189495532609673490'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7887530141065560790/posts/default/6189495532609673490'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://soul-you.blogspot.com/2006/12/jim-beglin.html' title='Jim Beglin'/><author><name>Onit</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09563736045365477772</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
