Craig 6682 Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Sad that a player like that is resigned to having to part with memorabilia of his achievements for the sake of his health. This is where the PFA should be coming in IMO. I just hope that the medals are sold to somewhere like the national football museum rather than a private collector...

Tooj 17 Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 it's shocking when you see things like this with him and most recently Puskas when today's wastes of space like Dyer have money to burn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Author Share Posted November 15, 2005 Aye - and if they had a whip round and each PL player kicked in a day's wages this sort of thing wouldn't happen...................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocking. 56496[/snapback] The PFA do help ex-players. I know one ex-player who had his knee op paid for by them. Is there an actual source to this story other than that message board. The first post reads like a piss-take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 That's what I said.............. 56977[/snapback] Rob, I wouldn't say I won in this regard since it's very difficult to beat someone who avoids answering your questions. However, since you seem so intent on persuing this, would you like to tell me, in your own words, why 'The Great Gatsby' reminds you of the work of Dickens?
