On Sunday mornings Jim White has the following choice: visit the supermarket buy trellising at Bn Q or stand on the sidelines of a muddy municipal football pitch his trouser cuffs wetter than a weekend in Llandudno shoulder-to-shoulder with a motley crew of mums dads step-parents & same-sex life partners all screaming at their beleaguered offspring. Youll find Jim in the same place every week failing to organise a bunch of lads into something resembling a team while on the far side of the park his opposite number a wannabe Mourinho in brashly monogrammed tracksuit struts the sidelines shouting
- always shouting. This is the hilarious story of Jim Whites time as manager of his sons football team: the highs the lows & the dog turd in the centre circle. At this level winning spirit is not so much about passion pride & belief as praying that your star centre forward has remembered his boots. Most importantly its about the enduring relationship between fathers sons & football. This is the story no one who has ever watched his or her child play sport will want to miss.
