FOOTBALLERS HAVE A reputation as being a pretty spoiled lot – motivated by money, flash cars and snazzy clothes. But sometimes, there’s a diamond in the rough.
Steven Naismith has been helping Glasgow-based charity Loaves and Fishes since 2010, while still a Rangers player. But, despite his subsequent move to Everton, he is still heavily immersed in charity work.
He has continued to fund Christmas lunches for Glasgow’s homeless community and has supported the same initiative at Liverpool’s Whitechapel Centre for the last couple of years.
On Wednesday, he headed north of the border to help serve those in need.
“It is both humbling and inspiring in equal measure,” he said.
Over the years, I have had the opportunity to speak to the people who come to Loaves and Fishes. Many of their stories make difficult listening, because of the severity of hardship they have endured.
It’s a very small gesture for me but I’m always told how much it means to them.” Naismith has made some genuinely fantastic gestures in recent years, including providing Everton match tickets for unemployed fans. He has also backed a project in Scotland which serves to help ex-servicemen return to civilian life.
Wife? 21? Really?
The wags are getting them locked down young
When I was 21 I was blowing shit up in the microwave ala Ian Henderson in a student house
Anthony Martial is married with two kids at 19. She knew…
Coutinho been married since he was 19 too I believe.
Check her out, she’s an absolute lasher. I’d be wifing that at 21 as well.
Image of Bale
Let’s hope he will be as good as Bale !
They say supposedly there’s around 7 people in the world who look exactly like you..
Yip. Lucky enough that mine is Ryan Gosling
:D
He’d make more money as an impersonator
Or even league one. Being on the books at a top prem club then going to league two is a massive drop down
And probably offers us an insight into the actual level that this fella is at. He’s not going to league 2 for any other reason than he didn’t have any other options. He might rebound in a few years but I’ve a feeling that looking like Bale will be as close to a top footballer that he may ever be and I mean that as no slight against him, the odds of making it at the top level of football are in the high millions.
Jamie Vardy. ….
Surely he could have been picked up by a championship club rather than having to drop down to league 2
Why would that be?
You would think that. But here we are.
And york city are in last place
Plot twist, Kenny is actually playing for Madrid and Bale is off to the metropolis of York.
So it was Kenny who got Wales to euro 2016!!!
Give him time, Alan Judge was in a similar situation when Blackburn. Now PL teams are interested in signing him.
Hope ha can play like bale
