Description

The story of one young African boy's journey to UK Premiership soccer stardom.

From the Zambian plains to Wembley, this is the story of the boy who was born to be a Bluebird.

Earnie follows Robert Earnshaw's journey from the Zambian village where he was born to Bedwas, where he was spotted playing for the B-team of his local club when he was 12 years old. At 16 he joined Cardiff City on a YTS training scheme to become one of the club's top scorers. He reflects on his Welsh success and reveals why Cardiff will always have a special place in his heart.
