Series 10 - Episode 2: Andy Leaning

When Andy Leaning was advised to take on an apprenticeship in a trade rather than as a footballer he thought his chance of playing for York City had gone. However, it turned out to be a blessing as Andy built up skills and experience playing local mens football which led to a chance reserve team game at Bootham Crescent.

Andy's career saw him move onto the likes of Sheffield United and Bristol City before becoming a successful goalkeeping coach.
