He’s always been a bit of a knob, that’s probably why he came to us in the first place. Didn’t he kick off because he wasn’t getting game time at first here?
All the argument for this are so stupid. Everyone pays taxes! Only NI starts at 16, if your five year old earns £100k/yr they’ll pay the same income tax as you or I.
