Phil's Boots
 

After the game yesterday, Phil Edwards was so disapointed with his performance that he decided to give his boots away to a young lad.
The lad in question wore them for St. Joseph's Under 13 this morning. They won 6-1 and he won the Man of the Match award!
Nice story, but my post is to say that Phil Edwards is one of the best defenders in the lower leagues-Hope he is back to his normal excellent self on Tuesday!

Phil Edwards is the terrace legend, quality lad, must of been a bad performance, the lad works his socks off everygame, best player we have, cant belive he is still at stanley, hope he is back to the quality defender he is on tuesday night,

Re: Phil's Boots
 

Got to agree with every post above, we forgive him the odd off game, but like others, I cannot believe he is still a Stanley player. Long may it be so as well.

Superb gesture by Phil.

Im sure that was a 1 off on Saturday

That 13 year old must be a big lad - big feet anyway!

as a kid I was always a goalkeeper (and quite good i thought!) and managed to acquire the gloves of the Stanley custodian de jour, Tony Nuttall. I frequently wore them whilst goalkeeping for my primary school and the Boys Brigade, aged 8-11 :)

I think my gloves must have been a bit big though?Glad to be remembered for something good,or did you nick them out of my bag?
