Meanwhile, you just can't keep diving off the back pages
Sorry, I know what you mean though in that this is a bit different due to him being only 13. However, has anyone seen any interviews with him or anything? If he's a fairly normal, level-headed kid then fair enough, but let's face it, a lot of kids of that age are complete cunts aren't they?
I see he's from Plymouth, I've no idea what teenagers are generally like in that area, but if he turns out to be a bit of a scally (although admittedly diving doesn't seem a very scallyish activity) then that could easily go against him.
And on a completely unrelated note, they really should get rid of the word "personality" from the title, shouldn't they? It's nothing to do with their personality, it's to do with their achievements.
