Why Kevin Davies didn't come

[GypsyBlackCat]

No problem with a player's wife refusing to move for family reasons. Must be tough for them, like Healy's wife, when their husband is moving around a lot on short term deals or moving every two years or so. More or less raising the kids by themselves. Especially players in the lower-leagues. But then again a lot of other people have to do. The so-called WAGS should take notice.

This

"Emma was left in Newcastle with two kids with no family around her to help."

Has the woman got any concept of true hardship?

What a pile of absolute drivel. If she wanted the 'normal' life she seems to crave them maybe, just maybe she should have not jumped into bed with a footballer.

Exactly. Transfer deadline day:

It’s the part of football that people rarely consider how upsetting and stressful it can be for the families. Being bought and sold like a commodity with your life hanging in the balance waiting for others to decide on your future. Friends outside of football say to me ‘why doesn’t he go and play for such and such a team?’ If only it was that simple.

2 days a year, the fans gather, excited, around SSN and internet forums to speculate on who they might get. The players have stressful days, worried that they may have to uproot for another part of the country.

363 days a year (minimum) the players live as millionaires, playing football for a living. The fans have stressful days, what with their football team being shit and living in a recession and being on the verge of redundancy and everything else that goes with living in the real world.

Cry me a river, pet.

Or maybe if it was hard they could spend 3 days salary to cover full time childcare, for 365 days?

Now his kids were dragged from Iceland to Norway, to Hartlepool, to Turkey (IIRC) then back to Norway.

If that isnt difficult for kids under 8 what is?

I guess Gardner would have something to moan about if hed done that like.

But regardless of salary, being away from your kids, or dragging them allover, must be a fecking nightmare.

People in the armed forces do exactly the same for £25k a year.
