Ever wondered how much it would take you to earn the same amount of money a professional footballer with the same name as you earns in a week?

No, neither had UTC. But when he received a frankly bizarre press release on this very subject from ticketgum.com [Ed– who?], he simply had to read on.

While he couldn’t find his own name on the list, the auld yin did learn that if you’re called Joe and you’re a typical bloke earning a typical salary, it would take you 4 years, 7 months, 1 week and 3 days to earn the same amount of money as former England goalkeeper Joe Hart earns in a week.

This is bearing in mind the fact that Joe Hart is more famous for having dandruff than he is for being any good in goal.

So that’s good.
