Best assessment I've seen on this was from the excellent @Fraserfranks
It's not about understanding football. It's about your body language/ demeanour and what this projects.
"We are all our own front cover".
Have pasted Fraser's full post from LinkedIn below.
Kicking off the @dryjanuary challenge, football legend @RealRazor sat down with @JayMotty & @Fraserfranks in 'BOSSIN the Booze'.
The trio reflect on their experiences with alcohol, how drinking cultures among men might be changing and the relationship between booze and the world of football.
With almost one in three (32%) men in the UK set to take a break from alcohol in January, Razor, Motty and Franks look at what might be driving blokes to re-evaluate their relationship with alcohol, and how the Dry January® challenge and the Try Dry® app can help them supercharge their goals and have a healthier, happier 2025 and beyond.
Get ready to BOSS the Dry January® challenge and double your chances of having a totally alcohol-free month with the Try Dry® app⬇️

All of us at the BHF are so proud of @Fraserfranks and the 1,100 runners that took on the AJ Bell Great North Run on Sunday, braving the wind and rain to represent #TeamBHF! All of the money you've raised will mean we can continue to research cures and treatments, so we can give people more time with the ones they love ❤️

The day this lad set foot on the training pitch as an 18 year old on loan at @NewportCounty I knew he was going to be a star.
The power he had in both feet, the strength and the willingness to learn. Even better that he is an absolute diamond of a lad.
Top 4 bound. ❤️
We love football, cricket, rugby but one of our favourite things is to work in different sports.
Thank you @wpbsaplayers for having us at your Player Support Programme 2024.
Possibly the most diverse audience we've ever presented to. Content translated into Mandarin as we went!
Colchester are a team to watch out for this year in League 2. Seen so many good signings so far. Top players at the level and proper characters too.
Then I saw today @simonbass10 was involved and it all makes sense. Not many better. 👏🏼

Last week @fraserfranks published a blog about parenting a talented child. There are no easy answers but, from his own experience as an academy footballer, he sees many unhealthy parental habits that concern him.
