Jimmy Greaves Appeal

This makes my blood boil. I've just commented on FB and Twitter to Neil Ashton about this.

You have a Spurs and England legend needing financial help - £30k!!

This is a PUBLIC appeal!!!

You have professional footballers like Adebayor, sat on his arse at Spurs, refusing to move unless somebody pays his £100k pw wages, we have the Chairman of the PFA on a £3.5m salary...and the only way to raise the money is via a fucking public appeal?

Disgusting.

(see article below ours).

It says the Spuds have paid all JGs medical bills through their Tribute Trust for former players....is that a seperate issue that the physiotherapy?

If it is, then i totally agree that it's disgusting that no-one within the FL/PL/FA/ex and current players have stepped in to help.....30k is peanuts within football nowadays.

They should dock it out of Adecan'tscore's wages. He won't miss it.

I guess it is Den. You'd have thought Spurs could extend it to another £30k though - they've saved £25m on buying Berahino.

But still, it just goes to show doesn't it. Footballers at Spurs could put in £1k each and he'd have his on-going treatment secured.

It really does annoy me though that fans again, seem to be the only ones who care.

Makes me sick too
My father had a stroke a few years ago and was paralysed down one side,couldnt speak properly & was in a wheelchair for the rest of his life
Completely destroyed his life and my mums
My mum spent a fortune on his care before he died last year

We got very little help from anywhere and now some footballer who lets face it shouldn't be skint after a long successful football career playing and presenting is asking for money. Kiss my black ass !
