Don’t clown around, wear the nicotine patch while on trial
By: Bob | January 23rd, 2007
There are a few golden rules when you go on a job interview. Always look the interviewer in the eyes, offer up a firm handshake, make sure you are fully clothed unless you are interviewing to become a porn star, and if you are football player always remember that the practice field is a no smoking area. Inter Milan defender Francesco Coco apparently forgot this golden rule while on trial with Manchester City and there is much speculation that his smoking on the grounds contributed to an early trip back to Italy after a mere two days in Manchester.
Coco’s trial lasted barely enough time for him to get through a full pack and long enough for him to earn the moniker Coco the Clown, but he can take solace in knowing that the trip wasn’t all for naught. He probably saved a bundle of money on cartons of cigarettes at the duty free shop.
Lest you think the disgusting smoking habit gets in the way of leading a full personal life, a quick look around cyberspace shows that Coco is quite the ladies man. In fact, women are his hobby and from the looks of some of his past girlfriends and fiancé he takes his hobby quite seriously. Let’s just hope that he doesn’t let the smoking go to his head while on the pitch like some players.
