A Hull City fan who has been raising awareness of mental health said he was "totally blown away" after receiving a letter of support from head coach Ruben Selles.

Marcus, who is originally from Hull but now lives in Malton, North Yorkshire, is known as The Hull Boy to his near 80,000 followers on the platform X after becoming a champion for fitness and mental well-being.

In the letter, the City boss praised Marcus's fundraising activities and said he had done "so much to help others in a similar position".
