Bacon of the Sea posted:A classic example could be made of Robin Friday, one time Reading and Cardiff legend, who was prone to drinking past kicking out time the night before games, was arrested on his transfer to Cardiff at the train station for bunking the train and quit the game aged 25. His final game saw him red carded for kicking Mark Lawrenson in the face, leaving the pitch, breaking into the Brighton and Hove dressing room and taking a poo poo in Lawrenson's kit bag. There are a few summarized stories similar to this of various footballers in The Rough Guide to Cult Football. I found a new copy for $4. It doesn't really go into details, but it's a nice book to read while riding the train or what have you. Also, I haven't read it yet, but Simon Kuper's Soccer Men: Profiles of the Rogues, Geniuses, and Neurotics Who Dominate the World's Most Popular Sport is along the same lines, but the stories are more detailed. mixitwithblop fucked around with this message at 12:31 on Nov 9, 2011 |
