FOOTBALL-MAD youngsters in a Thai orphanage received a parcel to bring a smile to their faces -- 11 shirts bearing the name of their soccer hero.
They were sent Alan Shearer shirts by Blackburn Rovers after the club was contacted Pat Nicholson. Pat, from, Hoghton, sponsors a 17-year-old handicapped girl Boonchoo at the orphanage and found out all the orphans loved Alan Shearer.
