It might be a business but clubs need to do more for the welfare of its employees, there is a lot around youth players on this but it goes hand in hand for all their puff marketing. They could have genuinely gone we will help the player rehab in this case (let’s face it most of their facilities they have anyhow), the lad will probably be ok I assume he will have insurance and the like but this is a perfect case in point where a club could support the lad in an unfortunate situation.
They aren’t Grimsby Town, though you have a feeling even they would.
In his defence, his old man was captain for them before some psycho cunt ended his career so I can see him having some interest in the club prior to them selling their soul
The one thing I’d like to see, from the Haaland signing, is a war forming with Roy Keane.
Haaland Jr scores a couple, then after the match, he has to do his media duties. I would love it if he flat out said to Roy Keane’s face, “I’m not talking to you. I will answer questions from the others.”
Make a big thing of it. Let the situation grow. Feel the bad blood.
Maybe a PPV fight at the end of it all? Keane is much the older man, smaller too, but handy with his fists. That would be a fight I would want to see. Is it too much to ask for?
What about Roy Keane’s son? Does he have a football playing kid? Perhaps his team could draw cheaty in one of the cups (let’s face it they normally get easy draws) and junior Keane can repeat the tackle on junior haaland. Then see Micah Richards or some cheaty limp wrist discuss it with a panel including Roy Keane.
