Our defence was rubbish.A friend of mine used to be a physiotherapist assigned to a few players on the England team (and strictly come dancing pros) about 10 - 15 years ago.she was (and I imagine still is) one of the top physios in the UK , 2 degrees and a masters from Loughborough to boot, she easily used to charge a grand an hour to fix their injuries, 2 grand if it was an emergency call.The pro dancers from Strictly took it very seriously at 1000 quid a go, they are not as well paid as footballers, but if a 1000 quid kept you in work for a year on the show and the pro dancing scene the dancers quite happily paid itThe footballers however were a different story, in short they didn’t give a toss. They would no show to appointments, wouldn’t follow any guidance or plans she gave them and then moaned when they tore their ACL , she used to say to me “I’m not surprised they never win, when they can’t be bothered to turn up at the clinics, bunch of overpaid fools” Edited 11 hours ago11 hr by fluffyflops
