As a goalkeeper you need to be good at organising the people in front of you and motivating them. You need to see what's going on and react to the threats. Just like a good manager in business.
From Peter Shilton
I'm still very professional about my fitness. I stay in trim as I always did.
I prefer more spicy food to your Italian to be fair.
Being fit will keep you mentally sharp and people forget that.
I played for 30 years, 20 with England and I did it by setting goals.
If you stand still there is only one way to go, and that's backwards.
Revie said there was nothing between me and Ray yet he never gave me a chance to show what I could do.
The money is in a different league these days, of course, but I have special memories of the 60s and 70s which players today don't have. There wasn't the same celebrity attitude and media exposure. We had a bit more freedom.
There are similarities between business and sport, in the pressures involved and in the fitness aspect too.
There have always been card schools at football clubs and always will be.
