Jordan's 15 mins.of fame

No sorry not THAT Jordan.

Jordan Poulos is 11 years old and we have known him before he was born so to speak. The son of  close friends, (yes they are patients of ours too) , Jordan had his "15 minutes of fame" on BBC Radio Berkshire this morning. Speaking to Nicki Whiteman  Footie mad, he has been a regular Reading Royals fan since he was knee-high to a grassopper.

Amazingly Jordan, aged 11, will be taking penalties at the charity match tomorrow at Madjeski Stadium when he will be part of the Reading Legends team v. Tottenham Hotspur Legends,shooting against professional goalies for chariity.

Jordan's dad said " It is a charity match to raise funds for Paul Turner, who until recently was a Reading FC physio. Unfortunately, he developed a rare virus that has virtually blinded him and curtailed his career.
I successfully bid for Jordan to be part of the action "


Here is the link to the radio show:
