I hadnt read this piece until I heard about it on the radio today. You can find it by just googling the thread title.
They say footballers should stay out of political debate, but....
Some notable quotes:
"When I was two years old, my father was murdered. That shaped my entire life."
"I didn’t realize it at the time, but my mum was hustling in her own way, trying to make a better life for us. When I was five years old, we moved to London to be with her..."
"My mum, though, she would be calling me every morning. “Raheem! Did you say your prayers today? Have you given thanks for waking up today?”"
"There was a two-year period where we were moving all the time, because we couldn’t afford the rent. At the time, I barely thought about it. It was just normal to me. But now I understand what it must have been like for her, going through that struggle."
"If people want to write about my mum’s bathroom in her house, all I have to tell you is that 15 years ago, we were cleaning toilets in Stonebridge and getting breakfast out of the vending machine. If anybody deserves to be happy, it’s my mum. She came to this country with nothing and put herself through school cleaning bathrooms and changing bed sheets..."
"They (the media) hate what they don’t even know."
What a story... |

"Should of been his mam that got the mbe
Why? I am sure she is far more proud that her son got the MBE I bet she is but she’s worked a lot harder bless her they both deserve everything they have "
I agree, the same with Marcus Rashfords mum and millions of other parents who have struggled and at some point have relied on social security |
