Why will the young need to work until they 75?
I won't be! |

depends what you call young. The retirement age will keep going up and up , it has too because were skint as a country and people are living longer. I'm 31 and I doubt I'll be able to retire on the state before I'm 70, according to the current rate of increase I will be at least 68. |

LOL I wont be waiting for the state pension , I'm pretty sure my chosen profession will allow me to pack in at 55 -60 (which I intend too) I'm more concerned for others who might not have that luxury. I thought you were the same age as me , I think you posted something about playing against or with Terry Newton , I had that dubious honour too.

Ashton, Parkside and Hindley (still there  ), Always hated playing against that old Orrell team. I went to school with a few of the lads who played in that team , quite alot of them signed pro - remember Martin Carney? I was sure he'd have made it but I guess it goes to show you just never know. |

A story about Terry Newton when he was in the U15/U16 team as told to me by someone from St Judes.
Cumbrian team secretary "Everything o.k for Saturday"
St. Judes secretary "Yes, no problem"
Cumbrian team secretary "Is Terry Newton playing"?
St. Judes secretary "Yes"
Cumbrian team secretary "Well, erm we're not coming"
I've just borrowed a copy of Newtons book, (done a temporary swap for Ingas) I believe it's worth a read. |

I played with Newton and against him. I much prefer playing with him!
He was a top player and hard as nails! |

Add another to the list although i was pretty young when i played with St.Judes.
He played at loose-forward for most of the games at Judes and was naturally more developed physically than most of the players around him. He pretty much had his own personal trainer at the time (his uncle i think) who would coach him one to one after training.
I was a little disapointed with the book to be honest. |
