      Premier League clubs don’t give a s**t about little clubs… I’m frightened to death about the future, says EFL legend

      by

      PETERBOROUGH chief Barry Fry has slammed the Premier League for “not giving a s**t” about the little clubs.League One Posh pocketed a £4million sell-on fee from Ivan Toney’s £40m move from Brentford to Saudi club Al-Ahli last week.Barry Fry claims the Prem does ‘not giving a s**t’ about the little clubsCredit: GettyPeterborough chief Fry is ‘frightened to death’ about the future of EFL clubsCredit: GettyBut Fry, 79, Posh’s outspoken director of football, says EFL teams have just experienced the worst transfer window he has ever known.Premier League clubs splashed out a staggering £2billion in the summer, with Chelsea the biggest spenders at a whopping £208m.And that is £1bn more than Italy’s Serie A clubs, the next-highest spenders in Europe’s major leagues.But what irritates Fry the most is the way the top-flight outfits are holding back on a new funding deal for the 72 EFL clubs.Read More on FootballFry, one of the best transfer operators in the lower divisions, hit out: “I am frightened to death about the future of EFL clubs.“I’m a lover of football and unless Financial Fair Play gets sorted out, clubs are going to go under in the lower leagues.“Premier League clubs don’t give a s**t about anybody but themselves — they forget where they’ve come from half of them.”West Ham’s vice-chairman Karren Brady argued in her SunSport column last week that the “lower leagues are earning and generating more cash than ever before”.Most read in FootballBEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKERSShe pointed out that Championship clubs enjoyed £300m in player sales business, with Sky paying out £935m to EFL football across five years.Brady also noted that under chief executive Richard Masters, the Premier League were adding £1.6bn over three years to “help the game flourish right down to park  leagues”.Top ten Premier League managers’ WagsBut Fry, who managed Birmingham City when Brady was managing director of the Blues, believes the EFL are getting a raw deal from the top-flight clubs.He added: “We have, going through the EFL right down the pyramid, the best system in the world, and it’s going to be destroyed by the Premier League.“We do not have a distribution which is fair or getting the Government to put a regulator in there to determine what  they do.“I feel that there is no way the Premier League will allow the Government to dictate to them and they are leaving it as late as possible to come up with a deal.“But it doesn’t help the clubs in the EFL, who are under enormous pressure, as this is the worst window ever in dealing with transfers for the lower leagues.“Look at the money being spent? F*** all! It’s frightening and we needed it sorted out, like yesterday!’Like a pack of cards’“It’s like a pack of cards. Once one or two clubs go to the wall, a load of them will fold.”And Fry believes the business climate is not helping club owners to cope with all the financial pressures of running a football team either.He said: “It is very, very difficult for owners because all these people are  struggling in their own businesses now.“They haven’t got the spare cash to help out their football clubs.READ MORE SUN STORIES“We have the greatest pyramid system, ever, ever in the whole world, and we should be bending over backwards to keep it and help every club up and down the country.“That’s because every club is so, so important to their community and they should be treasured.”Can you name the famous fathers?

      Charlton wonderkid Karoy Anderson only made his senior debut a year ago but is already an international football star

      by

      KAROY ANDERSON had a remarkable first year in senior football.The Charlton midfield wonderkid made his league debut, within two months was playing for Jamaica, racked up 24 league starts and played at the Copa America.Charlton wonderkid Karoy Anderson has had an incredible first year in senior footballCredit: JUSTIN ALLENAll this and he is still only 19.The academy-graduate though is keeping his feet firmly on the ground.He told SunSport: “If you look far ahead, you get lost in the future. If you look into the past you can get stuck there.“It was a great opportunity and experience to go to the Copa America, to participate in a tournament that size. I didn’t think about the magnitude of it until I got there.“The atmosphere was unbelievable. It was the nature of the games and what it meant, especially for my family and the people of Jamaica. It was humbling. read more football“It was exciting – the fans, stadiums and being able to travel to see difference places but also take business seriously.”Anderson came on as a late sub against Ecuador and played the last 22 minutes of the final group match with Venezuela.In the Jamaica squad he played and trained alongside the likes of West Ham star Michail Antonio, ex-Leicester, Everton and Birmingham ace Demari Gray and Brentford’s Ethan Pinnock.And, also in the group, was his Charlton team-mate Michael Hector.Most read in SportAnderson said: “I learned so much. I saw how they carried themselves and their application to training every day. They’re at a high level and been there for a while. You see what habits have ultimately kept them there, their mindset and preparation.“I got on with the majority of the team. I was room-mates with Dexter Lembikisa from Wolves. He’s been on loan at Hearts in Scotland.EFL goalkeeper sends fans into meltdown with utterly ridiculous ‘skill of the season’ in pre-season clash”It was a good experience to speak to someone like that and learn things from someone who is a similar age to me and who is at a Premier League club.”And in the Venezuela game, the Charlton kid faced former Newcastle, Everton and West Brom ace Salomon Rondon.But Anderson said while he was out there he was so zoned into the game he did not take notice who he was up against.And he said: “I didn’t think about other players in the moment. After the game you think, “Oh, I played against him” but in the moment I see it as football.”We’re all on the same pitch and on the same level. I don’t look at players and think, ‘wow.’ Of course, it was nice to share the pitch with big names.”Anderson’s mum is Jamaican while his dad also descends from there.And while he did once harbour ambition to play for England in recent years his heart was set on playing for the Caribbean island.The midfielder said: “Because I was born and raised in South London, when I was younger I was thinking about playing for England but as I got older I spent a lot of time going with my mum to different places and interacting with Jamaican people.”Also with my brother too. We spoke about what it would be like to play for Jamaica, what it means to everyone back home and how proud they would be. For that reason, it wasn’t a question who I’d play for.”And there was never a question that Anderson would not play for his local club.READ MORE SUN STORIESCharlton boss Nathan Jones can use the vast experience he gained at Luton to plot a way up to the ChampionshipKaroy Anderson is hoping to help Charlton win promotion this seasonCredit: JUSTIN ALLENThroughout his journey through the academy he often played a year, two years, even three years above his age-group as his coaches constantly challenged him to step up in class.Anderson may not have been star-struck while playing in the Copa America but certainly was when he used to be a ball-boy at The Valley.He said: “I was a scholar at Charlton and we’d be ballboys at the games. As a kid, that was so exciting and I loved watching players like Joe Gomez. Even though we don’t play in the same position, seeing his journey has been really inspiring.”One of the midfielder’s middle names is Zidane — due to his mum’s admiration for Zinedine — but his idol growing up was another French superstar, Paul Pogba.He said: “I loved him when he was at Juventus, how exciting he was. I look up to those sort of players.”Anderson is hoping to help the Addicks climb out of League One at the fifth attempt.And in Nathan Jones they have a manager who has been there and done it – as he was instrumental in Luton’s climb from League Two to the brink of the Premier League.The rookie midfield ace added: “Everyone trusts him and knows he knows what it takes to get out of his league and will do his best to bring this group to where the club can be. There is complete trust and we follow him.“Our aim is to get promoted – it’s as simple as that.” More

      I left Arsenal job with Mikel Arteta to manage in non-league… my wife was absolutely mortified

      by

      ANDY WOODMAN swapped a cushy job as Arsenal goalkeeper coach to slum it in non-league as Bromley boss.Even his own wife thought he was off his trolley.Andy Woodman celebrates leading Bromley to promotion at Wembley in MayAndy Woodman swapped the cushy surroundings of the Premier League for non-league by taking the Bromley jobBut three-and-a-half years later — thanks to a “no dickheads policy” and introducing a more professional environment — he has taken the club into the EFL for the first time in their 132-year history.Woodman, 52, worked under Arsene Wenger, Unai Emery and Mikel Arteta — but the lure of managing was too great.He told SunSport: “When I decided to jump from the Premier League to the National League, the response I got from my wife was horrific.“I had a dream job at Arsenal in charge of goalkeeping for five years and, prior to that, I’d been working with Alan Pardew for many years.READ MORE FOOTBALL NEWS“But this opportunity came up and, after speaking to the owner Robin Stanton-Gleaves, hearing his vision and knowing in his business life everything he touches was successful, it made sense to go for it.“Everyone has that inner manager in them and at my age it was probably my last chance.“It was brave to jump. I was in a secure job but felt it was something I had to have a go at otherwise I’d have forever been wondering what might have been.”Woodman found himself switching from a plush office with 200 staff at London Colney to operating from a tiny Portakabin, that doubled up as the club shop with only his assistant, former Millwall and Orient right-back Alan Dunne.Most read in EFLCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERSAnd they quickly set about creating a more professional culture at the Kent club alongside the owner.He said: “I’ve been in football 37 years. You learn from people like Wenger, Arteta, Pardew and Emery. Awkward Dominic Solanke interview emerges as Tottenham close in on transfer for Bournemouth star “You look at what they do and how they operate. Then you have the backdrop of all the staff behind them and how professional the clubs are run and the attention to detail.“Here we cannot afford all the staff but we can equip ourselves with the right culture and professionalism.“There’s no criticism intended of anyone who came before us — but having a players’ meeting in a bar isn’t professional.“Getting on a coach with all the back office staff and fans having a beer isn’t professional.Arsene Wenger never wasted words says Andy WoodmanAndy Woodman and his Bromley team hold aloft the National League play-off winners trophy at Wembley after winning promotion to the EFL for the first timeWoodman’s three Arsenal bosses …HERE’S what Andy Woodman thought of the three managers he served while working with the North London giants in charge of goalkeeping.ARSENE WENGERBRILLIANT. The guy knew every single person at the training ground, every single job and role they’ve done. He spoke to everyone minimally but when he did you felt like a god. He had a real knack.The last year at Arsenal, there was a lot of unfair noise and anger directed at him — but he remained the same guy every day. He didn’t waste words but you’d hang on every one he uttered.UNAI EMERYHE and his staff were excellent. I liked how they worked today. They followed a legend in Wenger and perhaps reflect now that they tried to do too much, too soon.They were professional and left no stone unturned. Unbelievable people who I still speak to now.MIKEL ARTETAMIKEL had his ways and beliefs — and didn’t divert from those. He made some big and bold decisions.He got loads of criticism early on but, because of his Arsenal legend status, got longer to get his vision across to the team and everyone else.And look where he is now. The job he’s done is incredible.“Preparing a training session in a bar the morning the lads were going out to train while they were having breakfast isn’t professional.“We didn’t have GPS here. We had limited amount of staff, very little training kit, little amounts of balls.“It’s all well for me to say what I want and how we’re going to do it — but I needed an owner was was going to back and deliver it with me. “And he did, we worked out our vision which was to get this club into the EFL and didn’t cut any corners.“Once you get that professional mindset, you start acting like a League Two club.”Woodman — a decades-old friend of Gareth Southgate who was best man at his wedding in 1997 — had a long career in the lower leagues.After being released by Crystal Palace in 1994, he went on to play for Exeter, Northampton, Brentford, Colchester, Oxford, Stevenage, Southend and Rushden & Diamonds.And Woodman — whose son Freddie is a goalkeeper at Preston — has seen the way management has evolved since he first started out.He said: “You cannot shout at people, flip tables and chuck cups of tea anymore.“You cannot be this hierarchy boss that no-one can speak to.“I’ve seen some managers trying to manage like that — but we all want to play for someone who respects us. “I’ve just brought that personality of mine with the respect value and treating people right because I don’t want my own son being treated wrong in the game.“We’ve a brilliant group of players here. We’ve a no dickheads polity. We don’t sign them. “If we have one, which we have had, I’ve got rid of them straight away. “We’ve no superstars, no egos and a group of players that are all happy to graft for one another.”In Woodman’s office is a year planner and on the square that says August 10 2024 he has penned: “Start of promotion-winning season.”He said: “If I say we’re just going to try to survive and see what happens game-by-game, my team will develop that mindset. That has never been my mantra. READ MORE SUN STORIES”You must set a target and aim for it. If you don’t hit it or fall short, it’s nothing to be embarrassed about.“The embarrassment should be the people who don’t have a target.” More
