You have to understand that a lot of footballers are complete thickos.
He probably spent the last few days googling what contract finished actually meant.

A young sports physiotherapist has died just days after retiring from Mansfield Town FC due to a terminal cancer diagnosis.

Matt Salmon, 25, had worked for the club for three-and-a-half years, mainly as the academy physio.

He was originally diagnosed with lung cancer in 2010 but only announced his retirement on Wednesday following a consultation with doctors.

Speaking on Wednesday, he said he had loved "every single moment" of his job.

"It has been an incredibly difficult decision to resign from my dream job at the age of 25 but unfortunately I have reached a stage where I am not able to give our players the level of care they deserve," he said.

He thanked his colleagues for their support during his illness.

"The fact that people who achieved so much in the game offer their time and support shows what sort of club Mansfield Town is and mirrors the principles that the town was built on," he said.

"I will finish by wishing the club, players, staff and fans all the best for next season and I look forward to the club playing League One football, which everyone at the club deserves."

The club said Mr Salmon was surrounded by his family and friends as he passed away peacefully during the early hours of Friday.

Chairman John Radford said he was a "thoroughly decent person" and everyone at Mansfield Town would miss him.

In a statement, youth directors Mark Hawkins and Steve Hymas said: "Matt was an inspirational person, taken far too young."

Anyone know the price for 2-1 arsenal sanchez first goal?

[ChesterDave]

Not certain but would have been something like 12/1 or 14/1

[RedReet]

Not certain but would have been something like 12/1 or 14/1

Bigger than that surely?

Arsenal to win would have been a big enough price, throw in correct score and FGS, you are talking quite a big price.

Eg. Reading to win tomorrow 2-1 with their favourite to score is 125/1.

[ChesterDave]

Maybe more. Not triple figures. 2-1 is a more favoured score so usually around the 8 or 9 to 1 mark. Sanchez scoring first would be probably around 5 or 6 to 1. But Sanchez scoring first increases the chances of Arsenal winning so you don't get the combined value of the true odds.

There is a Reading player to score first and Reading 2-1 at 40's on Oddschecker but no idea who the guys is and how more or less likely he is to score over his team mates

..

Poor bloke, that's far too young and to lung cancer? Awful news.

[ChesterDave]

By a few google searches based around things like tips or betting preview I have found Sanchez at 11/4 to score first.

http://www.bestbettingsites.co.uk/blog/the-fa-cup-final-arsenal-vs-chelsea/

is saying 55/1 for Sanchez first and Arsenal 3-2 so maybe if might have been more along the lines of 25/1 that 14's
