A "warm Feeling" Tale

[Canary42]

Amidst all the doom and gloom posts, it's nice to be able to post the occasional one which gives a warm feeling (IMHO)

Link below, but to sum up :- A welsh football club were drawn to play in the FAW Youth Cup even though they didn't have a youth team (a FAW mix-up). But rather than miss out, they publically appealed for 16-18 year-olds and within a couple of weeks got more than enough to field a team, and they WON (just 6 days after their first training session, and having never played an official game at all).

I wish them luck in the next round ;-)

Canary I think someone has been using your AB account. This can't possibly be you posting a good news story;-))

I wish them all the luck in the world. Good for them.

Who manages them ( Villa are after a new manager ).

Well done and best of luck in the next round.

Not just the manager Tony, get the whole team

[tonyav]

Well whoever the new manager may be he will have one hell of a job to get that shower to play as team, Rowan.
