Good to hear they are doing well. I follow them both on Twitter and heard it about it through there. What's equally good is the support of the club with this. The club is contributing to the welfare of it's players after they retire even though they aren't their responsibility.

Yet another way we show we do things right both on and off the field.

LMAO that actually made me burst out laughing, very true though

Solomona - definitely looks like a future nightclub doorman
Cooper - kinda looks like a farmers son lol
haha and i dont know why but Briers has definitely got the look of a milkman about him

ive heard mixed up pat works for the aussie tourist board in our winter then does ireland in the summer..sam tomkins is now doing tv ads(simples)..paul deacon has a newspaper round..

Ive heard if you want to talk to Frank its Gareth Hock thats picks up the phone lol

Few years back Mark Hilton gained his relevant degrees and was teaching Maths at a high school in Warrington. As far as I know he still does.

Boots'n'All did a feature recently about SL clubs now putting more time and effort into educating their players and giving them opportunities that will give them a career beyond RL. Ours is a brutal sport and those like Morley who have very long careers are few. It's good that the clubs are taking responsibilty for the players that give them so much. I don't think there's anything wrong with the players have a side-career if it means they have something to move on to once the playing days are over.

I think Blythe looks like he'd work in telesales.

Harrison would work somewhere that sells part worn tyres, he'd constantly have overalls on but with just one shoulder on them. I'd like to think should you ask for him, he'd be on a skateboard underneath a '97 Vectra.

He was indeed, when he first started I was in one of his "training classes". A very surreal experience. Can't remember anyone talking out of turn that's for sure!
As far as I know he is still teaching and working his way up that ladder.

He is still teaching maths at Gt Sankey, iirc he taught the Evans twins and Gaz O'Brien whilst they attended GS.

Andy Coley is a Quantity Surveyor.

And I believe Paul Prescott has a Law degree.

I can imagine Sam working in Sainsburys - probably on the deli counter. Cheeky chappy - good at his job but hated in some quarters. Rumours have been going around for months that he has been seeing Sheila off the checkouts. Now, Sheila is 40 but still has a glint in the eyes - especially for the younger man eh Sam! Sam and Shiela's fling hasn't impressed Candice however. Candice (works on the Information Desk) has always had a soft spot for Sam and one day hopes they'll get together. BUT, to complicate matters, Sam's brother Joel (Lurch like figure who works in the car park) has a crush on Candice!!!! Where will this end?

I'm not one to spread rumours, but when i knelt down to pray to God last night I could have sworn the voice that answered back was Tony Smiths.

Joel's on his last warning. He keeps on losing the trollies. He wants to be a bramble picker, next. His idol is Mickey from The League of Gentleman ("GET DOWN, Monkeyman"icon_wink.gif

That's exactly what Joel looks like, a trolley collector.

Graham looks like he'd work for Stobbart, defo a lorry driver. Maybe he'd have a 'curtain sider' and he'd collect palletts for a living, maybe making a few quid on the snide.
