Invited to spend a day training at Cambridge United, FourFourTwo weren’t going to win any fitness awards, but would our efforts impress the gaffer Neil Harris?
As the ball trickles off the edge of the playing surface, FourFourTwo’s heart rate suddenly increases. Rolling towards us, the perfectly round sphere is absolutely begging to be kicked back towards the group of Cambridge United players who are performing shooting drills a matter of yards away.
There’s no chance we’re missing our opportunity. Stepping forward, we confidently stride on to the ball and sidefoot it back into play with all the grace of a rusty pair of shears. Jerky and stiff.
