Jobs of Semi-Pro Footballers

Brendan_O_Connell

I was just reading that the Welling United squad will be training three mornings a week this season (as opposed to evenings).
As the players are part time, I just wondered what type of jobs they do when they're not playing football.

I guess a few are self-employed and a few work shifts, but bearing in mind they have to be available for midweek evening games, I wondered what kind of jobs are flexible like this??

Any thoughts?

Brother in law plays for Whitehawk... If he misses hours @ work he just makes time up + he's got no fans
