The player will be giving the agent a cut or some kind of regular payment too right? I've never really paid attention to that side of things, it's too murky and depressing.

I've never liked 'we pay their wages' as an excuse for people to say whatever they want. I have a season ticket, but Freddy Eastwood is not my employee in any way and I don't have carte blanche to abuse him freely.

Didn't Coleman take over some random Greek team?

There is a resentment towards footballers I find, along with a bizarre 'he's getting paid thousands, he should be able to score every time!!!' lack of logic. The writings about Robert Enke highlight just how insecure and stressful a footballer's life can be even if it is wildly lucrative.

I'm completely with the people who sympathise with his plight, but the insistence that nobody could do better than a managerial rookie blows my mind.

Bear this in mind next time the Mirror is the source of a story. They only cover the football league because they have to, they'd ignore the bottom half of the Premier League if they could get away with it.

Who are these 10000 fans who would donate? I'm sure there's a lot of talk, but when it comes down to it I don't believe people actually would prefer being out of the league entirely with nothing as opposed to League One and nothing.

Stan Collymore's been tweeting about depression fairly recently, by coincidence. From my very basic understanding of depression, people can manage to hide it very well from absolutely everybody around them, and unfortunately they end up most at risk compared to people who actively seek help. I...
