My heart goes out to young lads like Ndiweni. Their dreams of playing professional football blown away through unlucky injuries or because someone simply thought they weren’t quite good enough to make it. The club has made great strides this season in helping these unfortunate academy players into finding work elsewhere. Indeed my oldest grandson, Callum Thompson, is heavily involved with this project and by all accounts it’s proving to be very popular with the club, academy and players. Long may it continue!
I saw Michael play a few weeks ago at Blue Star v Penrith. Smaller physically than most of the players he was playing with but at a higher standard regarding skill, fitness and understanding of the game. This article shows that he’s a good lad who’s also got his head screwed on. I really hope he makes it
Brutal. Poor lad.
Seems to have a great attitude though.
Wish him all the best and hope to see his name rising up the leagues.
Nice article, Sam.

Wonderful story. With such a positive outlook, I’m convinced the lad has a bright future whatever the road he travels. Keep the Faith 👍
Great insight
