His mate Buckley-Ricketts has fallen out of the game completely. Signed for P’boro in 2018, made two tinpot appearances in 12 months (absolutely none in the league), and hasn’t had a club for a year. He was a starter in the England U19 team that won the Euros alongside Aaron Ramsdale, Ryan Sessegnon and Mason Mount. A truly incredible fall from grace

I always remember arriving at a home game about 20 mins before kick off & seeing the 2 Man City lads stepping out of a top of the range Merc in the car park, laughing & joking. Everything you’d expect your stereotypical Premier League big time Charlie’s to be. This was at the time that KR decided they weren’t the players for a relegation scrap.
Another case of youngsters from a big club being led to believe their own hype when in reality they’ll struggle to make a career at even the lowest end of the football league.

He’s attending a performance centre over there with Lunny. It’s something they both did last year off their own backs.

Roffe, maybe the Scottish spelling...based on pronunciation perhaps?

Or as my old Glaswegian friend used to say ' it must be your accent, Jimmy' !

Simon Heslop signs for Blyth Spartans

He was slow to begin with, it must be like watching a glacier move around a football pitch now when he plays.

Good long shot though.

from The Athletic, discussing reasons a player might sign for one club or another.
" More money doesn’t always mean the player getting richer. Lee Johnson, the former Bristol City manager, talked last season about “family fees” becoming part of the ever-increasing list of payments that are made in transfers these days. "

I wonder who he might be thinking of?
