FORMER Colne and Bacup footballer Julian Dowe has launched a footballing website aimed at amateur and youth players.

He realised there was nowhere for any football player, from a six-year-old to a Sunday footballer, to make a one-stop visit and get advice on the best boots, what they should eat, injury worries, training tips and more.

So he set up the website www.football4football.com on a subscription basis which will provide clear and uncluttered information on a wide range of subjects.

The site is backed by the NSPCC, Kick Racism Out Of Football and Salford University, who provide a lot of the information about injuries.

So if you are a budding David Dunn or Glen Little, or just want to improve your skills, drop in on the site and have a kick about.
