A note to all you soccer players out there. If you are very lucky enough to play for a professional side, and plan on turning up on the day for the match, make sure you were actually selected to play before getting kitted out. Otherwise, you’ll end up like Fabio Coentrao, and never hear the end of it. Coentrao was assigned a rest day and left out of the squad for this inconsequential league match, unfortunately, no one seems to have told him and he neglected to look at the team sheet, hence he couldn’t find a seat anywhere on match day.

Poor fellah…I’m sure a fan wouldn’t mind the company.
