2015 Three fun hi/lo football stories for struggling readers, from English writer and football journalist, Alan Coombes:
- City Boy - Josh is disappointed when he doesn’t do so well in matches at school, so his granddad comes up with some rather unorthodox training methods to help him.
- United Here I Come! - Joey and Jimmy are both awful footballers but Jimmy is convinced he’ll play for United one day. Can he make his dream come true?
- Red Card - Pig-headed Seb finds it hard to get along with the new ref because she’s a girl. But even he must admit how good she is…
