Football manager Dave

Mo is 30-ish and for the last 4 years has run a booth for snacks and oddments just opposite the hospital. He was a refugee in Guinea for much of his teenage years. He was very good at football until a hernia operation slowed him down. Many of his friends are keen on football so he thought of starting a club, the Aberdeen Mo’s. Sponsor and manager (i.e. provider of new football) – Dave Lyth (who barely knows the rules!). The first game was today, but the opposition didn’t turn up so they had to move to some waste ground and play a friendly. The game was fast and furious with a few injuries and a final score of 3-3. Yours truly went on for a few minutes, and by a fluke headed a goal in!

As I am usually working amongst females it’s nice to get alongside some of the young guys here and make friends.
