A "skinny" lad who used to take fake sick notes to school every week get out of PE class is now a successful Personal Trainer (PT).
John Evans, originally from Aigburth, was “forever begging” his mum to be excused from sports lessons as during them he would be “ridiculed” and “emasculated” by other pupils.
The 39-year-old claims if he wasn’t being laughed at, he was maliciously being picked last for the five-a-side teams which “crushed” his self-confidence. The bullying wouldn’t stop when the final whistle of the football game blew, it continued through other lessons of the day and even during lunch.
