FOOTBALL REMEMBERS CHRISTMAS TRUCE

If you have not yet heard of the request from the FA to help us commemorate the famous Christmas Truce Football Match, why not look up the FA website and get your club to join in the week long occasion to remember the many footballers who perished in the First World War. Have a look at the Sainsburys' advert including the "Christmas Truce" between our troops and the Germans which is a bit soppy but a reflection of what happened (see post 26/11/14). The FA is staging a variety of events this week running up to December 15th. Before your match tomorrow or this week, take a photograph of your two teams joining together with officials and coaches (and parents, why not?). Using #FootballRemembers post your photograph on Twitter or Instagram.
