Let's make this birthday one to remember.

37 years old (Born on March 21, 1988)

Happy Birthday, Lee Cattermole! The midfield maestro whose tackles were tougher than grandma's fruitcake and whose passion on the pitch made referees reconsider their career choices. From your fearless debut with Middlesbrough in 2005 to becoming Sunderland’s beloved enforcer since 2009, you've given fans countless memorable moments—and opponents plenty of bruises.

Whether it was bossing the midfield at Stadium of Light or collecting yellow cards like they were Pokémon cards, you always played with heart and grit. Here's hoping your birthday is as legendary as your crunching tackles—just try not to slide tackle the cake this year!
