    Just read this on the BBC. A great story of how football and natural talent has given Moses success from a very tough start in life. Good on him.

    *I am well aware this lovely story is tainted by where he has ended up, but given his start in life I can over look that for a minute or two.

    Good for Palace for paying for his education. I posted something on the Watford player, Richarlison, on another thread, another bloke with more (hard) life experience at the age of 16 than most of us gather in a lifetime. I wouldn’t wish these experiences on anyone, but you have to hope that the attitude which has driven these types of blokes forward and their motivation to work hard rubs off on some of their young English colleagues.

    Was listening to the Open All Rs podcast yesterday, and James Casling, who's story of how QPR saved his life hit the news a few months back was telling his story - and the show he did with Victoria Derbyshire has won a TV award. Another heartwarming story, and another plus for QPR in the Community.
