professional footballers who smoke cigarettes

They've photoshopped the Jack Daniels out and replaced it with mineral water!!

Where's Hemsworth Tyke gone? I was looking forward to his comments....

 

Oops

 

He looks like David Ginola

 

A teeny bit, but Ginola looks a bit too creepy and smooth he'd look better with a scar down his face or something!!

 

Later on in training, o'brien was caught hanging upside down from the crossbar wearing a pair of Rimmo's shorts, last worn in 1955.

Wiseman and crainie were caught playing "slaps" whilst their team were attacking and "Perks" had a running battle with Flicker, who had turned up in his Rochdale kit and was playing as an ageing Adam Le Fondre, whilst reffing at the same time

 

It's ******* stupid and they should get fined heavily for it. It's the equivalent of Stephen Hawking making someone tw4t him in the head with a hammer every now and again.

 

Football fans who want to control footballers private lives off the pitch ...... yawn ...... it wouldn't bother me one bit if all our players smoked 40 a day n supped 2 bottles of whiskey a day as long as they did the business every time they wore the red shirt. Jesus, buy a season ticket and right all the wrongs in a footballers life

 

What the **** does that mean?

Footballers are grown men who can decide what legal substances they can take into their bodies and what they can't. If it starts affecting their football they have to look at themselves in a mirror and decide if its worth losing their career over. If it doesn't, who gives a flying . . . . ?

 

Exactly Joey

 

I think that for the money they are paid it's not unreasonable to expect players to take some steps in their personal lives to maximise their athletic performance. If I was a manager and found out one of my players was smoking I'd be livid.

To me it suggests an element of disrespect and a lack of professionalism.

 

Every time I see a photo of him , he looks more and more effeminate!!!!

 

I think you are just seeing what you want to see....

 

There have been rumours, about both him and the ex.

 

Where do you draw the line then? Do you stop them drinking? Ban eating in McDonalds? Fine them for nailing dirty whores?

They have to be responsible for their own health and lives. If they choose to smoke thats up to them, they have to face the consequences just as we all do if it has an affect on their profession.

 

Yes, yes and no. It's whatever affects their health and therefore their ability to play a professional sport. It's the sacrifice a professional sportsman (or woman) should be able to make, IMO.

 

apparently Cryuff smoked like a laboratory beagle and he wasn't all that bad
