His career's been on the slide majorly ever since he left Everton years ago. Still, you'd think he might at least attract a tier 5/tier 6 side.

Kyle Lafferty, Graham Dorans and Jason Naismith play for Johnstone Burgh in the 7th tier of Scottish football. Lafferty is on £1,500 a week with about a £20k sign on fee. You’d need to go to the Scottish championship/SPFL1 for even a resemblance of those wages. Doran’s and Naismith supposedly on a grand a week. Their entire teams wages the season before they joined was about £19k per year.

I imagine Macclesfield have a sugar daddy just like Burgh do.

It always feel surreal to me when I learn I make more than a professional footballer (who I’ve seen play)

He played the first 2 games of the season and has been ruled out indefinitely with injury which required surgery. About 2 weeks work for £100k+ and a club physio to look after you is alright. No matter how “easy” your job might be, you definitely worked harder for that money lol

Well before he got to Everton. Terrible signing
