i used to be sc_owl Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Just smashed through all TSF books on audible and I’m pretty sure it is Dave Kitson. However, he mentions a manager he had a run in with a few times. I might be way off but I keep coming back to it being Tony Pulis. Any one else have a theory?

TheEnchanter Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Kitson was really heavily linked with some of the clues however I thought at the time a theory came around that it might actually be a few footballers made to look like one. I think certain parties analysed all the aspects of the book and worked out it couldn't have been one person or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect that a few bits were changed or made up to throw people off the scent. I think it has to be one player though, as I think it would be difficult to maintain the secret if it was multiple players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Kitson had a massive fallout with Pulis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 I had a feeling that the secret footballer books threw a few red herrings out to make it more difficult to find out who was behind it. No surprise Tony Pulis has had fall out with some players. He is in same mould as Megson and Warnock. As a player you will either love him or hate him.

cazzaswfc Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Pretty sure it's Kitson and I dont think he's ever officially denied it? But like others say I think some of the stories are other players, such a small world and they tend to keep in touch with everyone they've ever played with - easy to throw in a detailed story of a mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcmigo Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 It is dave kitson i believe , and the manager 'issue' is Kitson and Pulis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 https://talksport.com/football/431540/stoke-tony-pulis-attack-scissors/ Doesn't sound like Kitson and Pulis will be sending each other Christmas cards. I actually don't read a lot into this. Every manager including the great ones has fallen out with players. Being a footballer manager is not a popularity contest.

Kitson admits he was out of order to talk to TP in front of the CE etc... very disrespectful. However, Pulis should have nipped it in the bud, had a conversation, tell him where he went wrong and draw a line under it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Errol Flashman Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Comes across as a bit of a knobber, Kitson. "Id been disciplined. ..i can't remember why" "Id been dropped ...reason escapes me" Next thing absolute perfect memory recall. Just a bloke. Being dragged along in a world that moves too quick for it's own good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owls2k Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Kitson and the Secret Footballer both come across equally on the insufferable chart, so it could be him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRightSide Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Kitson: I just picked up the scissors and went for him Also Kitson: I’m not a red mist kind of guy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
