Norwich City fan Allan Todd tookpart in 2014 and told Football Aid about his experience after the event:
“It was another fantastic experience with Football Aid at Norwich City. As always, the event was wellorganised and our hosts for the day were warm and welcoming.
The game was high paced and very enjoyable (apart from my awful mistakewith the second goal) and when I changed from keeper to sweeper/keeper in thesecond half to counter the home teams tactics, I felt that I made an importantcontribution to our comeback and win.
I would have no hesitation in recommending this to anyone who has apassion for the game. Memories that will last a lifetime are created and newfriends made. If I am fit enough, I would love to play again next year and ifnot, will try to get to some games as a spectator.”
