BLAIR Glynn was 11 years old when his life changed. It was a normal day; he was out with his family and playing at the park, the same as many other children.
Then, in less than a second, a vein in his neck “bent over” and he suffered a stroke. “I ended up in intensive care and was in hospital for about three months and needed to learn to walk and talk again”, Glynn, 36, told The National.
“I was also right-handed so had to learn with my left. If you ask my mum or dad, they will say I had a chip on my shoulder but I wasn’t sure who or what I was angry at. That’s when I found football.”
