Well done fella, something to be very proud of.

I have a mate who has had a transplant previously, so I know all the ups and downs of it, health wise. She must have a very positive attitude to do all that.

Congrats to you both, just dont let Arsenal go above us in the league!!!! Thanks for the round last month also.
