Looking after the best interests of footballers at a big club in the south. The same player used to smoke shisha at the training ground and it burned holes in the carpet. And against all of this background, he was one of our very best players. There was a particular cupboard that we strongly suspected was occasionally used for illicit entertainment – all ‘a bit Boris Becker’ - but nobody was ever caught in the act. There can be a lot of jealousy inside a football club towards staff who work with the players.
