From passionate football manager to labourer: Jonno working as hard as ever
The Class of '92 documentary star Anthony Johnson, from Bury, known as "Jonno", has opened up on his recent venture into the flipside of unemployment within non-league football.
Sackings in football are commonly phrased in the same sentence as cliches such as "on the beach next week" and "hefty pay-offs".
Johnson, 40, epitomises the fact that you can be sky high one minute and quickly find yourself searching for ways to pay your bills the next.
But, the former Chester, Salford, Ramsbottom Uni

Iain Hume describes terrifying experience as ‘throwing up’ saved his life - UCLan Live
November 8, 2008, Oakwell. An all-Yorkshire affair between Barnsley and Sheffield United.
The first half approaches the 35th minute and there’s a battle brewing between Barnsley striker Iain Hume and Blades centre half, Chris Morgan. A tough defender, Morgan is kicking lumps out of the Tykes forward before events escalate.
Hume runs across his man to challenge for a header, which is met with a crushing elbow from the old-fashioned Yorkshireman. Smash. Hume’s out.
But that’s the only the half

Preston North End's Luke Hemmings to embark on unique Deepdale challenge
Preston North End sports scientist Luke Hemmings has been busy training hard, ahead of his ‘Everest Challenge’ - which is set to take place in late May.
The local lad has set himself the task of climbing the equivalent height of Mount Everest - three times across five days - ascending and descending the steps of the Alan Kelly Town End at Deepdale.

Archer's on target again - thanks to Liam and Bro
JORDAN ARCHER says Southport boss Liam Watson has helped him rediscover his mojo – along with a dose of inspiration from younger brother Cameron.
The 29-year-old has got back to his best form for the Sandgrounders, who sit eighth in the National League North.
Archer admits he had endured a period where he wasn’t at his happiest on a football pitch, but the success of his brother at Championship side Preston North End – on loan from Aston Villa – inspired him to get back to what he does best.

Injured Robins ace just so proud
ALTRINCHAM graduate Amaar Hussain is on the road to recovery after raising over £8,500 to pay for urgent knee surgery.
The teenage forward says he is “lost for words” by the response of a ‘Go-Fund-Me' page set up by the National League Robins to help raise the required amount for an operation to his ACL.
While the majority of senior players would be covered for injury expenses by the PFA, the 18-year-old did not have that insurance in place and was forced to fund the £8,450 operation out of hi

Nine years on from Preston North End’s Wembley success, key figures have reflected on that famous day down Wembley way.
The season began off the back of a disappointing defeat in the play-offs the season prior, as North End fell short against Rotherham United. Left back Scott Laird felt the defeat proved pivotal in the preparations for the following year which proved to be one to remember.
