A BFG who was hugely talented in sport especially tennis and cricket. Growing up sport was a source of comfort and normality as he battled with a stammer all his life. He smashed school and moved onto further education whilst playing sport. Forging a career with the fire service and starting a family halted that but eventually he found his way to Widnes RUFC and became a big part of a really successful spell for the club, yet his biggest victory is getting control of his stammer with the help of the McGuire Program.
