A football CAN keep on earning after he hangs up his boots...

[Shed Dweller]

If he is good enough as a fooballer that is.......

Point in case:
Yet again another brilliant footballer, somehow, manages to land job after job as a manager based purly on his reputation.
Yes gents....Brain Robson.
Gets, what has to be a lucrative contact, to manage Thailand.
His history as a manager is pathetic. The highlight being avoiding the drop with West Brom. Bradford and Shef Utd need not be mentioned.

So if anyone ever says 'footballs need to earn everything they can and follow the money, their career ends at 35' Bullshit will be my reply. Even Gazza can earn money as a manager!....over a pint or 35.
???

It seem a lkot of english managers get attracted to that job.. A stepping stone as it were to where they really want to be.

The contract he signed officially lasts for "long time".

It's easy being Thailand's manager. They have the best players in South East Asia.

Robson's brief:

1) Win the South East Asian Games gold medal for football later this year.
2) Win the South East Asian Cup next year.
3) Qualify for the Asian Cup (I dont know when that is though).

Once in awhile he can be a guest pundit on ESPN Star Sports (the Asian version of EPSN).

Next Asian cup is 2011.
