Still a character.

While I still play professional football, I know the
ripe old age of 33 is considered to be well into the
realms of retirement from the sport.

This, coupled with a double leg break I sustained
during a game towards the end of last season, has
forced me to begin thinking of life after sport - a
daunting prospect for someone who has only
considered one career path since primary school.
Planning ahead of time and exposing myself to
alternative routes and life skills has been vital in
allowing me to feel psychologically comfortable
with the next step.

Over the years, football has allowed me to set
up businesses and follow ventures I would never
have considered had I chosen a more traditional
route after school. For this I am grateful and would
encourage anyone reading to follow their heart
while they are young and in a position of relative
freedom to do so.

I am coming to terms with the reality that while
the mind will forever crave playing sports at a
professional level, the body will find it harder to
compete with each passing year. Completing my
UEFA B and beginning my UEFA A License will help
quell these emotions as I look to embark on a more
managerial career after retirement from the sport.

A real pity he never got a chance here for daring to stick to his word. Pleased to see him doing well and I'd love him to be involved in giving Salford a right hiding whenever they play.

Aye, I don't claim to know anything about what went on but it's patently obvious that events weren't in the best interest of either JJ or OUFC.

Pleased it's working out for him.
