cuttsie 1,091 #2 Posted September 13, 2021 Why would a 34 year old need a rest after playing ninety mins football with a rest in between , they should try carrying the hod on building site for 44 hours a week or riding over the mountains for 8 hours a day in the Tour de France or maybe 12 rounds in a boxing ring with Clinton Woods . Thats what one calls being knackered . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
cuttsie 1,091 #3 Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) Carrying the hod involves climbing a 29 rung ladder with 108 lbs of bricks on ones shoulder , as well as that we have the gob which weighs round 60 lbs a climb, The bricklayers (also knackered after a hard day on the job) are constantly calling for materials , the trips up the ladder can run into hundreds a day some times 6 days a week with a rest on Sunday . The Tour de France , Spain and Italy cyclist climbs mountains that stretch into the clouds for 8 hours a day they burn 6 or7 thousand calories and have constantly eat and drink some of em have died in the saddle if not from fatigue then from crashing over mountain edges . Chris Froome has broken 27 different bones as well as many dislocated shoulder injuries , his Welsh compatriot Gilain Thomas road the whole tour with a dislocated shoulder and fractured wrist last year so as not to let his team down . Rocky Marciano was a light heavy weight boxer who was the only man ever to be un beaten in the Heavy weight division , He used to get beaten to a pulp in nearly ever fight but went through the pain , ****e and blood to win , no complaints , no rests , no falling down rubbing his leg as though a bloooody horse had kicked him . These guys had no muscle rest to fall back on , no hold on a minute while we have rest , They are hard men who no footballer can compare with . Ref ,Ref , he's tripped me up , Ref ,Ref he's pulled mi hair what a load of codswallop that is . PS some of the cyclists are older than Billy Smart , most of the building , steel, and other manual workers have to go on til 65 if they last that long .

These footballers live a very charmed life indeed I was staying at a hotel not far from Sheffield and got talking to a Barnsley FC player back in 2018 anyway I asked him how many hours do you train a day he said “2-3 hrs a day” he then stated “he is totally bored” I then said how much are you on “8k a week with the biggest smile on his face” I choked then he said “that’s every week” !!!!.... Absolute p*** takers and then they have the audacity not to produce the goods on the pitch !!!!!..... I also remember our school teachers telling us back in the 80s you will never make any money out of playing football you would be better off getting a trade oh how the table’s have turned !!!....

Bang on , My lot used to get me up int middle of the night ,dragging me down stairs wi no pijarmers on so as I could join the family who sat in a circle around the Pye radio that whistled and screeched . This ritual was performed every time Rocky Marciano fought , I can hear the Yankie commentator now ,, "Rocky is down" "Rocky is back on his feet" "He lets a left go " Now a right" "Rocky's knocked him out " . Owt like those memories stick around until the big sleep comes . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
