New signing!!! The biggest thank-you to everyone @YorkCityFC who made this happen. Jack has always asked Askey to sign him up, and been told to go to the office to sort out paperwork. So yesterday, we did. They weren't expecting us, and they made it happen. One very happy son!

Finally, after all the years of playing football, he played his first matches in a small tournament today. He scored a goal, he saved some goals, and loved every second of it.

OK, so the gift of the gloves was legit. Not quite so sure about the medal 🤭, and not even sure whose it is 🤔, so if any of this amazing, promotion winning @YorkCityFC team are missing their medal, let me know, and I will get it back to you!!!
