But I did get to work with Ron Atkinson who is an absolute legend and a great guy."We all used to love the crack with Big Ron, especially the five a sides where he'd join in and shout for the ball, saying: "Give it to your best player"."I have always loved my golf but didn't join a club until I was in my early twenties.
