Now i realise that i'm always bitching about football and footballers, its one of the main parts of been a fan!! But this story is one of the most amazing stories i have ever heard and it dosnt just matter that its about my club - if any club did this (Even god for bit Newcastle United) I would be singing their praises
Gary Parkinson played for Middlesbrough between 1986 and 1993, where he played alongside current boro boss Tony Mowbray in the defence. He then moved on by 2010 was working as a youth coach for Blackpool when he suffered a horrific stroke that left him completely paralised. Now over a year laster Parkinson is only able to communicate via eye movement and blinks yet he has just accepted a new job as Middlesbrough Scout, Mowbray will send tapes to Parky of potential transfer targets and will then let his wife no what he thinks with a series blinks. If thats not amazing i dont no what is!!!
