Help for Heroes Match
MAYPOLE FC V YARDLEY WOOD SOCIAL CLUB
This charity game was played on the 23rd October 20011, we would like to thank all members of the Yardly Wood Social Club who between us all raised £300.
"It’s about the 'blokes', our men and women of the Armed Forces. It’s about Derek, a rugby player who has lost both his legs, it’s about Carl whose jaw is wired up so he has been drinking through a straw. It’s about Richard who was handed a mobile phone as he lay on the stretcher so he could say goodbye to his wife. It’s about Ben, it’s about Steven and Andy and Mark, it’s about them all. They are just blokes but they are our blokes; they are our heroes. We want to help our heroes."
