It may be a far cry from an opening day of an Ashes Test in Sydney or a tour date in St Lucia, but former England bowler Steve Harmison seems to be doing a fine job with Ashington AFC. After shocking the sporting world by taking the job with the Northern League Division One side in the ninth tier of English football, the local lad, 36, has now won seven on the spin with his club side. Recent victories against West Allotment Celtic, Penrith and Celtic Nation were particularly impressive, Harmison is only looking up as a football coach.

Mike Ashley will come calling soon...' Current Newcastle boss John Carver says he has invited Harmison to training to catch a glimpse of his favourite team, who are reeling from a 1-0 derby day defeat to Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. Harmison though, is having no such troubles. When he took on the job, Ashington were 17th ub the league - now, they are the form side and are comfortable in mid-table. The 36-year-old is a boyhood Newcastle fan and is doing well with the non-league side . After Saturday's victory against Crook Town, Harmison was targeting even more success, his players not settling for just the three points. 'The positive thing is that despite winning 4-1, the players are disappointed,' he said. 'All in all it was a good 90 minutes for Ashington FC. It's a results business and we have kept the run going.' Harmison, who took 226 Test wickets for England between 2002 and 2009, played for Ashington briefly as a teenager.
