There is always life after football - seems like a lot of footballers enjoy a round of Golf

I look at Golf when I realised I was not going to make it as a footballer at the age of 14.

Within 6 months I made it down to a single handicap but then my progress stopped. That extra bit you need to make it never happened to me for whatever I tried. Some people it is not a problem, do I hate that kind. The best of luck to him.

As men get older the balls they chase get smaller

I cant recall him doing much for us apart from a goal against Newcastle (we still lost 1-2 I think)

Swapping with Jones was ultimately the best option
