Mike Niles
Mike ruptured the cruciate ligaments in his knee two weekends ago, he emailed me more concerned about missing the project than the state of his footballing career. He made an incredible, four legged-hobbling return to the project this Tuesday which reminded me of when Martin Keown played an entire football match and found out afterward that he’d fractured his ankle in the second half.
On a more serious note, Mike’s eagerness to return was due to the fact he had just started to work with a young man that really needs his support. They worked exceptionally well together on Tuesday and I’m delighted to see his mentee engaging when in the past he has been one of our hardest to reach young men.
Mike hobbling off on crutches after the project brought a tear to my eye.
A huge thanks to Mike for all his efforts.
