The secret footballer

[TartanMackem]

Just read the second book and he (Dave Kitson) seems to have a few little digs at us from around the Keane era.

Mentions the Reading match day spat over Halford, the part time manager craic and Anthony Stokes failure to live up to expectations.

As well as this he keeps mentioning us when he's naming an example of a lesser/shit club.

Any reason for a grudge with us or Keane? He does come across like a dick at times in his book mind.

That's amusing. He could have taken his pick from any of the clubs he ever played for. Sunderland would have been the pinnacle of his career if he'd ever been good enough to play for us. But he wasn't.

Chances are there's more than just one. Makes no sense to limit it to a single individual, too easy to suss it out. Kitson is likely one of a few.

Our midfield could take turns.

See above. Just a quick search on the company and it gives quite a bit away

Has it be proven that the secret footballer is Dave Kitson? I know Danny Murphy and Peter Crouch were possibilities.

He fits most of the criteria from this: http://www.whoisthesecretfootballer.co.uk/dave-kitson/

His comments (or should I say his 'friends') were pathetic and completely unnecessary

I always though the secret footballer was Tommy Miller.

A deal was in the offing (secret), but someone at the club changed the terms (secret), there was interest from another club (secret), and someone's daughter was shagging someone (secret), this scuppered the deal, BUT a new club sniffes around (in secret), and offered more money (secret).

Other than that, fuck knows, it was all kept secret iirc.

It's definitely Kitson. He's shown in the video in this link and it's definitely the way he 'runs', if you can call it that. His build is almost spot on aswell.
