Weird start to this thread. Bloke in the office was talking about a crime novel he'd been reading set in Ancient Rome in which the detective went by the name of Marcus Didius Falco, at which point I said "Fuck off, he's never called Mark Falco", but turns out he is. Who knew?
Anyway, that got me thinking. Where is Mark these days? Quick look at Wikipedia tells me that he works with John Pratt, clearing asbestos from Hertfordshire. Which is a bit random, but not every ex-player can talk bollocks on Sky, BT, Talksport or the BBC (even if it sometimes feels like it), so some of them must be doing something a bit more everyday.
And I'd have left that thought there, if I hadn't come across this video with Allan Nielsen. Turns out that Allan is now a life coach, which is a bit of a made-up job, but it keeps him off the streets and means he's really invested in the concept of helping others, which is nice. Sadly for Allan, he can't say 'others' and, in a weird turn of events, a couple of Danes are ripping the piss out of Allan for this. Or at least I think that's what's happening as I don't actually speak Danish.
Anyway, enjoy Allan and his lutrine friends and, while you're doing that, let me know if you know what any other ex-Spurs are up to these days? The more random the better.
