Sissons Gets England Call

Last updated : 03 November 2004 By Mark Heys
Bolton Wanderers youngster Robert Sissons has been named in the England U17 squad to tackle Hungary in a friendly match at Preston North End's Deepdale stadium later this month.

Sissons is part of the Wanderers Academy team and has made great strides this season when often featuring in a number of games for John Peacock's young Three Lions.

The midfielder represented his country in the Nordic tournament in Finland earlier this year and was to get his first international goal against the Faroe Islands soon after in what was a comfortable 2-0 victory.
