Retired from football at 28. He was very highly rated as a youth team player, now a postman. Wonder what happened.

Final ball let him down, his delivery was always second class. Other than that he could turn on a postage stamp.

Most youngsters with any kind of ability make a living in football somewhere, that pays more than a postman.

After he left Rovers he did the rounds, I believe the disappointment of being released enveloped him, til he realised that it was all part and parcel of the game.

Prob all went wrong after he ran over a black (and white) cat.

Jerome Watt had a decent career in non-league, with clubs like AFC Fylde and Lancaster City.

The majority of Academy players will end up playing non-league.

We should sign him. He might be a surprise package who could slot in the odd goal. I also hear he is a staunch monarchist, and is delighted about the safe arrival of the royal male.

It is a good thing he wasn't looked at a year or two ago, as a part time contract would have been terrible for his fitness. He'd probably be the poor guy who has to deliver Kean's 500 letters of fan mail a week.

Steve Grunshaw, who was the next big thing towards the end of the 90s and allegedly a target for Arsenal, is now a Police Officer in Accrington apparently.

Someone posted on twitter a few weeks back that of the number professional footballers at 18 years old, only 5 % are still professional footballers at at 21yo.

We signed him with Ciaran Donnelly from Blackpool I think. Donnelly was England's best young footballer at the time and I think scored 3 or 4 goals against Romania. Never came through for us though. Wonder what happened there...
