Tommy (and his team) are grant funded, with a large portion of their wages met by the PFA, which means that the 59 year-old Scot can support whichever team he likes.Tommy's career details can be viewed here.

Robbored Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Football in the community is not payrolled by BCFC.They are an independent organisation that rely largely of charity to survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
