I'm reading a book about soccer at the moment (more another time). En passant I've noticed one or two little known soccer facts.
#1 Did you know that Ryan Giggs dad is a black man? Danny Wilson, a Welsh man with West African (?) roots, was a rugby league player.
It's also worth noting that Giggs has played in every Premier League season so far, scoring at least once in each season. See more here. I notice there is a shot of him playing for England schoolboys - what was that all about?
He played for england schoolboys as that team is made up of boys who go to school in england and not english boys only.
ReplyDeleteThanks for explaining. I'm very ignorant.
ReplyDeleteDanny played rugby union for Newport and Cardiff before heading north to play league
ReplyDeleteThanks for that too
