LMS London Franchise Owner, Ross Cawood commented,
‘Manoj is a true legend of a guy. One of the nicest guys to be on the LMS circuit. His weeks in the summer are filled with LMS games every night and both days on the weekends. He’s now 47, played 434 games and for 55 teams and still going strong. Great effort buddy!’
