Building house on rock. (Matthew 7:24)

1994 - A New Player

After the 94 World Cup in USA, I went to UK for study. Disappointingly, Wells Cathedral School is not so emphasize on Football. Hmm.. yes, so don't think UK school should play football.

However, I introduced myself as Eric Tse, I like football very much.... Even they don't have a proper school team in high school there, they have nice football pitch. And also, as I am a broader, staff do play indoor football with students on Friday night. My UK football story starts here...

I sprained my ankle again, on my right foot. Well, even now, I do sprain it about once per year. Anyway, therefore my ankle got tired easily. I met lots of people from football, as I said. Lots of great friends as well, in Wells, my very good friends are Mihai Nicolcioiu (Mike, my Romanian friend), and Terry Manders. They are from Ritchie House. In Ritchie, we did have a beautiful garden. However, everytime we played football, we killed the grass on the field. It was not encouraged by Mr. Sowden, our house master. Nevermind, we didn't play football anyway.

On the very first day of school, I did have a nice game there. Then, they knew I could play a bit. Sooner, I was called to play for student on Friday night. From there, my skills had been improved and my stamina was built up significantly.
