A football team dubbed the WORST in Britain after losing 26-0 has been offered a lifeline – by former Premier League footballer Jimmy Bullard. The Wigan Athletic hero was drafted in to help Manchester-based Cavaliers FC, which has lost every game of the season.
After fielding a team with no goalkeeper and only one defender, the club put a plea for help on social media following the embarrassing thrashing by Avenue FC. Specsavers spotted the post, and connected the side with Bullard, with the end goal of moving them up the league.
Over the next few months Jimmy will put the squad through their paces with a series of drills, challenges and workshops. And as well as making sure the players’ eyesight is up to scratch, Specsavers has also provided the Cavaliers with a slick new kit and given them nutritional supplements.
