Accountant Geoff Liron (57), who is president of First Tower United FC, often undertakes the role of linesman for the club.
However, on Saturday he had to make himself available for the substitutes’ bench because only 11 Tower players turned up to Springfield for their game against St Clement due to illness and unavailability.
And when forward Jake Hutcheson pulled up with a groin injury, Mr Liron was forced to unzip his tracksuit to play a full hour’s worth of high-intensity sport in the Jersey Football Combination Championship.
First Tower are looking for team sponsors and volunteers to help out with administrative tasks.
Anyone who would like to help can email Mr Liron at geoff@rosscot.com
