A stranger can watch that and know exactly where he lives, his room layout, what time he goes to work, where he eats etc. Enjoyed it though but can’t help but they should give that some thought, some nutters out there Given that he lives at the top of the Anchorage building, I think he’s pretty safe. Case in point, during the summer when the squad was in Florida I was cycling past Josh’s building at like 22:30 (on me way to the gym) and there was a black ford parked outside the garage to the flats. As I approached from behind they hastily drove off, only getting as far as the bridge into town by the M Shed. As I passed them there I saw 4 plonkers all sat in there with balaclavas, they’d obviously seen from his IG where he lived and that he was away but hadn’t taken into account A) The difficulty of getting into a building like that (that even has its own security firm on call) and B) The fact that the building is situated in an area that’s rarely deserted. These thieves aren’t the brightest tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, suppose he’s just a kid. When my late partner moved in with me she rented her house out to a City player. I had to go and do a landlord's inspection and, like you, I was struck by how unhomely it was. Great selection of trainers though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, suppose he’s just a kid. Probably why so many players end up falling off the rails. Loads of free time, plenty of disposable and little to keep them amused. And if they are spending a huge amount of time on their own, it's no wonder they get bored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-Robbo Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 I know it's central Bristol, but I'm surprised by how small the flat is given his salary. Reminds me of the flat me and the wife rented when we first got together. I was earning £11k a year and she got - I think - £8K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 4 hours ago, RedM said: I was wondering that. They are lived in by so many of our players over the past couple of seasons it can’t be just a coincidence they are empty when we sign someone. 3 hours ago, Drew Peacock said: I suspect they are rented. I believe City use an agency to sort all this stuff out, or they used to, so that if a flat becomes vacant they can just slot another player in it. It’s not unusual for a player to buy a place, and then leave the club, and then rent it to an existing / new player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Up The City! Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 6 hours ago, Major Isewater said: Are these appartements owned by the club ? Wouldn't surprise me if SL owned through Pula or something. SL is very shrewd when it comes to finances so its possible there is some sort of benefit to the club by having this arrangement. Something like being paid slightly less for the books which helps with FFP but not having to pay to rent the place. don't know how legal that is but suspect there is some sort of arrangement to that effect which is done legally.

He probably doesn’t need anything too big, if it’s just him and his “missus’. And if he’s got any sense, he won’t want to tie up all his money in the property he lives in.
