I always presumed I'd be a footballer and was 'spotted' at the age of 9 by Albert Geldard ex England international ....
He told me I'd play for England one day but he LIED ...
No big deal though as I always wanted to play for Brazil
Still do actually and I just turned 60
I played football 24 /7 - 365 well into my teenage years when they dropped the bombshell that I'd never make it as a footballer as I was ' just wasn't nasty enough ' to make the grade
