Footballers and the law

[Aarondo Westy]

Saw something on Facebook regarding footballers and there fall from grace.

 

So I looked round the Internet for players ex or current that had ended up in jail

That link has 16 players ex or current who have.

 

Just interested to see if any one knows any more or any stories of players who have ended up being a car salesman like Malcolm Christie or jeff Whitley for example

Don't see any link between going to jail or being a salesman.

Loads of ex-pros, if not all, before the Premiership explosion of wages went into normal jobs at the end of their careers. They had to. As do most lower league players nowadays at the end of their playing lives. Some may have a bit of capital saved to set themselves up in business but lots seek employment like everybody else.
