Kind of like Heroin. That's why the timing of when you force feed them to your kids is crucial ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glynnb Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Eye witness accounts from the dressing rooms at Leicester City and Sheffield United, among others, confirm that pro footballers have resorted to eating babies for pre-match fuel.

lanzaroteowl Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Watched the Leicester City players stock up on Gummy Bears in EMA before a European game. They did lose 4-0 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteOwl91 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 They’ve been doing this for ages. The players take turns in buying all that for the group. Like posts above say, barely touch the sides. If they just ate chicken and rice they’d be weak as pish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawksmore Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Nah this is not a good sign at all. Speaking from a sports science perspective, there are many better fuelling strategies. For example highly branched cyclic dextrin mixed with water would absorb quicker and offer a much better uptake than all of these sweets, which are not pure sugar, but also containing gelatin too. A pro footballer during weekly training should be able to hit his nutritional requirements without needing sweets, however, if they fancy eating them go for it. Just a bit odd and dated our club still buys in to this. Sports science at Wednesday may have come on a lot in recent years, but it's still lacking in comparison to top championship teams.

If only the club employes you then.. we would be champions. All teams have pizzas , sweets etc for post match.

Making such sweeping statements about a field you have little to no experience in is a sign of low intelligence too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gelatin is for the joints... Alarmingly I think these types have pork gelatin. Maybe we should insist on pork free sweeties... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
