Bartley: Not just a footballer

[Monts]

Apparently starting his own boxing promotion company.

Is it normal for footballers to have side businesses?

Is he going to sign up Darren McCormack?

I think our backup keeper a few years ago (Murdoch) had a car rental company.

So long as it doesn't result in a conflict of interest to their performance, I can't see it being an issue.

Given the short nature of professional football careers, it's actually very sensible IMO.

I'm sure Chris Killen runs his own Car Insurance Company especially for professional athletes.

[Bayern Bru]

Jamie McCluskey owns a clothing firm.

And a helluva lot of footballers appear to have connections with clothing firms - not talking sponsorship deals, but part-ownership etc.

In the '50's I played alongside guys with/or interest in newsagents, confectioners, bakers , even chip shops !!

Marvin Bartley v Ian Black over ten rounds. There's a fight I'd pay to watch if he fancies promoting it.
