Player contract revelation

Post by ContrifibulatoryFred »

I was more than a bit disturbed to learn this evening that one of our squad players is expected to clean the changing rooms and wash down the showers at the end of each home match.

This seems very unfair on the player concerned

Gotta give a bit more background to this. Not doubting what you heard but can be seen as making up fake stories which might negatively impact the team. What context was this told to you in?

As I said, it was unexpected but on reflection no one will be surprised to learn who it is

You've been led up the path on this one.

But to give it a guess it would have to be Myles Judd who seems to be the whipping boy when it comes to jokes, etc.

Or Dean Brill because the thought of him coating off Brophy for leaving his water bottle behind sounds hilarious.

If you have ability with a mop and bucket then it would be a shame not to use it.

This person is also expected to empty the bins in the Olympic Suite so perhaps some of the pate de fois gras brigade will see him on Saturday and then the facts will be proven to all you MB sceptics

I don’t pick the team but this person has to clear up regardless of whether he’s chosen to play by Rosso and Dan

Feel free to phone the club and ask them who has to clean up after the matches - I'm sure they'll tell you what they told me

Could be a cost cutting exercise. Perhaps we're getting rid of the physios and reverting to a sponge and bucket man.

Afraid not, wrong hairstyle, he doesn't have a mop-top. In any event I fear you're being swept along by this thread.

I asked the club to clarify who empties all the bins, cleans the dressing rooms, and washes down the showers after each home game

They replied: 'Janata'

I rest my case

Years ago it used to be a regular part of the duties that apprentice footballers used to do. Also cleaning the boots of the senior players and sweeping/cleaning the terraces after matches. Many young footballers used to also do apprenticeships in other trades so that they would have jobs to fall back on outside of football. Tom Finney's father insisted on his son doing an apprenticeship as a plumber, a job he combined with playing football. Tom Finney was a great player and had the nickname of ''The Preston Plumber'' !!
