Our oldest grandchild, Fabrizio, now in his mid-teens, has been offered an apprenticeship with Tranmere Rovers- on the proviso that he gets GCEs in English and Maths.
Boy done good!
Tranmere Rovers, never an elite club, has a long and not inglorious history. Founded in the 1880s and based in Birkenhead- t'other side of the Mersey from Liverpool- they currently play in Division 2 of the English Football League. This is their crest. The shield is that of the Birkenhead and the boat on the ball references Birkenhead's historic identity as a ship-building town. The motto means something like "Where there is faith there is light and strength"
I know it's not much of a recommendation but even I have heard of them.
