fricking steve morison and GRANT HOLT! co-own some greyhounds

quote:

I’ve always loved animals and my family home in King’s Lynn is like a miniature farm. I’ve got everything: horses, goats, chickens, ducks, cats, dogs, fish, ferrets, and even chipmunks. I’ve got it all.

I watched greyhound racing on TV an awful lot when I was growing up and I would go to Walthamstow for races. When I was at Norwich I met a trainer Jim Daly, who suggested I buy a share in a dog. So I did, then another, and then I bought my own dog.

My strike partner Grant Holt would come to watch it run with me and he got the buzz and bought a dog. Soon we had about five between us and we started a small club, SMGH Greyhound Racing. People pay a little bit of money to own shares in the dogs but without the risk if they get injured. We have about 60 shareholders now and Ladbrokes sponsor us.

I knew Zlatan and Maxwell were friends, but didn't know the backstory until recently.
quote:

I will be honest, I didn't have money for this month, because the salary comes after one month, and I had a television and a bed in a big house. No, not a big house, today I'd see it as a small house, but at the time it was a big house. And I called Maxwell, because Maxwell came to Ajax at the same time as me, so he picked me up at the airport and I got to know him a little bit more. After two weeks I called Maxwell and I said I have problems, he was like 'OK', because Maxwell is the best guy in the world. I mean if you want to think of a teddy bear you have Maxwell. I called him I said 'listen I don't have food at home, I need help', and he said 'OK come to my place'. He put me on the floor, with a mattress to sleep on. I slept in his house for two weeks, I was hanging out with him, eating food and driving to training together.

I mean fletcher... Yeah I'd buy that in a heartbeat. Wickham is still really young and seems a giant douche by his party pictures and 20k bottles of champagne. Cattermole is insane so who knows what he's capable of.... But Johnson looks like a damn boy scout. He's one of the least threatening looking athletes in sports..
