I laugh at all this I really do - yeah they get paid, they swan about but you tar every single player with the same brush

Hobby ending...dear.

Kicking a ball around a field is not around a field is not a 'job'. Millions of people do it...after school, after work...etc. Just some LUCKY people, get paid for doing it.

Its kind of like me getting paid shedloads of money for reading a book. Because I read a little faster than others. And i could sustain a serious paper cut while doing it.
