    Carroll

    Injured again. Out for three months. Why doesn’t he just retire?

    Not while there's money to be gleaned out of WH. Can't imagine any other PL club that would take him on, total liability now.

    some people stay for the money

    it wont be up to him to retire
    it would be the club and then the fact they cant get him insured

    would you retire if you were on his wages sitting on a massage table 20 hours a week

    True enough...but who was that lad they had-got him from Norwich-who did retire injured rather than keep taking the money his contract entitled him to?

    Last time I was down London I saw him outside the job centre in Barking. It might have just been a coincident like?
