Author Profile 'Give me the child until he is seven and I'll give you the man'. So it was that as a seven year old boy growing up in Sheffield within sight of his team's ground, John was already obsessed with football and playing the bugle, in that order. In typical style John took a bugle to a match in 1993 'just for a laugh'. The mystery bugler was identified and asked to form a football terrace band. John and the band were then given the honour of being asked to play for England. Musically challenged, perhaps, but the most passionate, determined and best at generating an atmosphere anywhere on the planet. John is in the process of writing his second book. |
