I was meant to play in that too, but two or three years before that, I'd snapped my Achilles in a charity game I completely ruptured it, Butt tells us. I came back, then ruptured it again two days after I got off my crutches, so I swore I'd never play again.
Everyone would talk about what they'd do with this player or that, none of them had kicked a football in their life or got any experience in football. You allow it as footballers, because everyone has got an opinion. But then when the finances come out and I try to say something, they go, 'What are you f**king talking about? You haven't got a clue, mate.'
