The little earwig was a keen footballer almost from the day he hatched. Despite his disadvantages and bullying he worked his way up to the school first team, where he was head-hunted to join his local professional team.
The manager struggled to find kit to fit him and had to have a special shirt made for him. Due to an error at the manufacturers, it had the number "0" on the back instead of the intended "20".
At his first match he was on the subs bench for the first half, but sent on early in the second with his team 2-0 down. Quickly his amazing ability to weave through the opposition defence proved decisive and he kept scoring! Soon the home fans were rejuvenated and as he slipped in his third to take the lead, you could hear them chanting:
"Earwig Oh! Earwig Oh! Earwig Oh!"
