CREDITON Youth Under 15’s squad received a special Christmas surprise in the post in recognition of our support in the community.

Our very own Dave José Hughes had been in touch with his counterpart at Tottenham Hotspur, and as a result we all received a signed letter from the real José (Mourinho) congratulating us on our efforts during the Covid pandemic when we collected food for Crediton Foodbank.

He stated that we were “an inspiration”.

Our inspiration is Dave Hughes - a great asset to our team.

Covid allowing, Spurs are provisionally looking at inviting the squad to The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium later this year.

By the way, our gaffer is a full–on Spurs fan!

Hope you all had a good Christmas and New Year. I, for one can’t wait for the season to begin again.

Keep safe.
