Another life story that suggests pro football ain't all about the glamour:

He's not really scoring a goal against Crawley though.

Is that the match day thread when you bore everyone with how ex players are doing?

...and perish the thought I don't want to demean it by including it in a thread where Jordan Clarke has some new white boots.

It is, much like Kyle, interesting he ends up taking a menial job to make ends meet. The article doesn't really go into enough depth for me, raises more questions than answers (the speeding thing is bizarre in the extreme, and there's a note of self-pity there too), but both Kyle and McKenzie show that even if the world seems to be gifting you a living, it can be a struggle.

And both show that at the end of the day, you get on with it.

Interesting when you compare with say Clarke Carlisle

It's like being an average City supporter really you just have to put up with it.
