Kid in the Riot Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 It's unpaid, full-time for one year, you'll be expected to work unsociable hours, travel all over the country and get no travel expenses.

Mad Cyril Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Wish clubs would run the same job ad with the same perks but under the title of "players wanted" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DancinDannyD Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 It's amazing isn't it... travel all over the country, help the club out, but don't even get travel expenses! Yet the average player will be on £,000's a week ... Taking the mickey in my opinion, but I still expect there to be a number of applicants.

A Horse With No Name Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 My immediate thoughts are that, if they already use Prozone or something similar, being bottom of the League and certainties for the drop, it doesn't take a genius to deduce that it doesn't work.

SimplyRed Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 I find it incredulous that a company can expect someone to work for them FULL TIME and UNPAID. Exactly how are they supposed to live? I hope HMRC are investigating these types of role - it's a disgrace that these companies get away with this sort of nonsense.

Pickle Rick Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Good story-got any more? Yea... Another friend of mine has determined that SpongeBob SquarePants is all about drugs. Here is the so called evidence. SpongeBob SquarePants is on meth amphenemines. It's blatan. He's always really, really happy, energetic and, occasionally, paranoid. If he ever is in a bad mood, it's the result of a major crash. He never just gets mellow then sad. He goes from really happy to really sad or really angry. There's no middle ground.Patrick Star is a stoner. He laughs at stupid things and eatsall the time. He's also really stupid. The THC is probably permanently in his system from his smoking so much. He must go through like a pound of weed a week.Squidward Tenticle is on heroin. He's always down and he yells at SpongeBob for being hyped up and energetic. Also, with all of his arms, he'd have no problem shooting up.Mr. Krab is on coke. He's really upity and notice how he's always concerned about money. Coke is expensive. He has to manage his finances carefully if he wants to sustain his habit. He's also their dealer. Notice how there are few people in The Krusty Krab. How does Mr. Krab keep his business afloat? The Krust Krab is just a front and a little extra money for Mr. Krab to cover is drug operation.Sandy Cheeks is just an alcoholic. She ruins every episode she's in 'cause she's always drinking. I wouldn't be surprised if she curls up with a bottle of Jack every now and again. You asked. Want any more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Horse With No Name Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 I think Mr Krab doesn't need to keep his business afloat. It sits on the ocean bed. Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
And Its Smith Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 My immediate thoughts are that, if they already use Prozone or something similar, being bottom of the League and certainties for the drop, it doesn't take a genius to deduce that it doesn't work. Everyone uses pro zone and someone has to finish bottom so you're immediate thoughts are wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
