Just think. There you are, a better than average winger turning out regularly for Hull Ionians in National League 2 North, training a couple of times a week, having a few bevvies with the boys afterwards and generally feeling pretty good about yourself. Pre-season training is well underway - it's hard but you're getting fitter slowly but surely and you're beginning to feel sharp and ready for the new season.
You've taken a look at the fixture list for the coming season and note that the first league game is at home against Fylde. Not bad, you think, they finished a couple of places higher than us last season but we can definitely beat them on our own patch.
And then someone whispers into your ear - Fylde have signed Jason Robinson. What - Jason who used to work on the deli counter at Tescos and played Colts rugby with us a couple of years ago? No, THE Jason Robinson, League and Union legend, England and Lions legend, possibly the best player this country has ever seen and did I mention he's a LEGEND?
Blimey. Better turn up for training this week then.
