First we all went to pizza hut to fill our tums before the match.
Aaron and I were in our Liverpool football shirts, Billy stayed neutral being an Evertonian.
We walked back to the ground and took our seats on the touch lines.

It was a lovely sunny day as the players came on to the pitch. Both Billy and I remembered many of the players from the old days. I watched many play during the 80`s along with my dad. I have been to many matches watching Liverpool play including Cup Final`s at Wemberly in the past. I have also watched Tranmere Rovers and Everton.

It was a good game. We were watching many of the old famous football stars playing from the
70`s 80`s & 90`s . These included for Liverpool`s Phil Neal, Alan Kennedy, Jan Molby, Gary Gillespie, John Aldridge, Mike Marsh, Howard Gayle and Dean Saunders the Wrexham manager.
For Manchester United players included David May, Liam O`Brien, Lee Sharpe, Sammy MclLory and Andy Ritchie.

Liverpool won 4- 2. Aaron really enjoyed the game shouting and joining in with the crowd.

Aaron loves football and is a wonderful player. Coming home from football practise in a very muddy mess. He is training with TNS. He enjoys playing in all positions from goal keeper to striker scoring goals.
Billy is also very keen on football and played semi professional before having to give it up due to injury. Billy is a keen Everton F C supporter. Its fun being on opposite sides Aaron and I both support Liverpool F C.
Billy is a great influence on Aaron and loves playing with him. Must admit both myself and Aaron`s Aunt Gaynor also have a go playing football with Aaron. Billy encourages Aaron and gives him tips etc to help him along his confidence has grown and he certainly isn't frightened of tackling much bigger players than himself.
Both these boys are great pals and get on so well its lovely to see Aaron being able to trust a man again,. Billy is a fantastic father figure for Aaron and makes a wonderful dad. I couldn't have found any one better. Billy would never fail him or let him down. Billy your are the best love from us both. xxxx
Watching the football at Wrexham was a nice day out which we all enjoyed.
