Football Managers, Players and their Hobbies

[Lycaon]

Reading through the Nuno in, Nuno out threads it has occurred to me if he has another passion/hobby outside of football which gives him an opportunity to unwind, relax and generally chill out from what is a highly pressurised environment?
Jack Charlton loved his salmon fishing in the Scottish Borders, our very own Jody Craddock loves to dabble in art and like many players, a round of golf is a form of just getting away from the rigours of the game.
Just curious if anyone knows of any other outside interests within the football fraternity?

Ex-Wolves player Brian Laws - coach driving.

Surely not the same Mr Collymore that use to set fire to a fifty pound note in front of his Cannock mates and proclaim “ I bet you can’t do that!” Allegedly?

We’ve had a few players over the years that appeared to enter burger eating contests.

Paul Gladon was a food connoisseur and restaurant critic.

What Gladon, at least at Wolves, was not was a footballer....
