Football was thinking about coming home after 58 years, but after some research on the Interweb revealed its parents had purchased the council house it had been brought up in, but couldn’t keep up with the mortgage payments, so got evicted.
It seems the house was bought by a bastard landlord who converted it into 10 bedsits and the local pub is now a foodbank. The playing fields it learned its craft on are now office blocks and golf courses.
Football told Newsbiscuit “It ain’t home like I remember any more, so I’m glad I took my chances on Spain.”
