Straight From The Off welcomes Dean Astbury to the Podcast. Dean was latecomer to organised football and didn’t play for a team until 16yrs of age. After beig asked by two of his mates to start playing he decided to have a go. What most people don’t know about Dean is that he had been his father’s full time carer from 16-17yrs old. Dean’s Dad Freddie was born with Thalidomide in the late 1950’s, so life was not easy groung up. Dean burst on the scene banging goals in for Sunday league title challengers The Western Approaches FC and later signed for their fierce rivals Oyster Martyrs where he won every trophy possible. He also played for Waterloo Dock, Marine and Skelmersdale. He talks about his favourite goals, games and all about the lads he shared a pitch with and played against throughout those times.
Episode 103 is brought to you by: Impressions Health & Support rehabilition service based in West Derby, Liverpool.
