Description
Mark’s nearly twelve and about to play in the biggest match of his life. Wilko the PE teacher reckons he might be good enough for England one day. Or Selby Town.
Then his father wants to be back in his life. He was nearly famous once, nearly a good dad once. Kicked out of his band and kicked out of home, he’s promising things will be different. Again.
When’s Mark’s grandfather crashes his motorbike and ends up in Intensive Care, things couldn’t be worse, until Wilko makes him centre forward over the brilliant Tom Hewitt and told to say he’s injured…or else.
It’s match day. His granddad’s in surgery. His dad’s on the side-line. No pressure…
