'My voice is clinging on for dear life': Swansea City's Lenny Johnrose gives heartbreaking update on motor neurone disease fight

Swansea City Football Club cult hero Lenny Johnrose has shared a heartbreaking update on his health as he continues to battle motor neurone disease.

Mr Johnrose will forever be remembered by Swans fans for his vitally important role in the 2002/03 season when the team were battling against relegation.

The club came through on the final day of the season with a 4-2 victory against Hull City at The Vetch Field, and although James Thomas’s hat-trick heroics stole the plaudits, it was the all important third goal by Johnrose which helped stop the club from dropping out of the football league.
