Ex-Manchester United and England winger Neil Webb, like any proud central midfielder, took pride in his delivery.
Nobody should have been surprised when he became a postman just for that reason. Webb won the Premier League, the FA Cup, two League Cups, and the UEFA Super Cup during his four seasons at Old Trafford.
He also played 28 times for the Three Lions and was a member of the squad that reached the World Cup semi-finals in 1990. He would have been one of Sir Bobby Robson's go-to players if he hadn't ruptured his Achilles during a match against Sweden.However, Webb’s heartbreak proved to be Paul Gascoigne’s pleasure, as it opened the door for the Geordie to charm the nation with his antics and run amok on the international scene.“Fair play to Gazza,” Webb said in an interview with The Times. “He always thanks me for getting injured.”
Webb is one of the few players to have played for both Sir Alex Ferguson and Bryan Clough. He spent four seasons at Nottingham Forest before joining United in 1992, and he returned to the club in 1996.“Fair play to Gazza,” Webb said in an interview with The Times. “He always thanks me for getting injured.”

He spent four seasons at Nottingham Forest before joining United in 1992, and he returned to the club in 1996.After retiring with Grimsby Town in 1997, Webb eventually went on and became a postman, earning around £220 per week, after a friend recommended him to join the service. Needless to say, his role made him the most interesting postie in the neighborhood.
“It took me ages to get round,” he added. "When they found out I was delivering their mail, they invited me in for coffee and a chat."
“You won’t be seeing any footballers from the last ten years doing it.” Considering the seismic wages modern day players are banking every month, we very much doubt we will see any Manchester United players delivering your letters.

World Cup 2022: 974 Stadium is dead forever, to be dismantled by the Qatar government
Just as it was erected in record time, as of this Thursday, the historic work began to dismantle the 974 Stadium, an iconic work of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, due to the fact that it is the first fully removable covered stadium used as a soccer venue.
What made the 974 Stadium unique?
It was a stadium with an important symbolic content: its name refers to the Long Distance code for calling Qatar and it contained the same number of steel containers, in recognition of the importance of maritime trade for this country, which is an important trading point between Africa, the Middle East and Asia and represents the Qatari sailing past.But it is also a symbol of the sustainability that these events have to consider in the 21st century, in order to be in harmony with the environment.
For example, its cooling facility, about 10 kilometers east of downtown Doha, had an innovative cooling system designed to redistribute the breeze from the Persian Gulf.
Qatar 2022 will have a historic stadium.
On November 22, it hosted a match between Mexico and Poland, with a capacity of 44,089 spectators. However, because its materials will be recycled, the cost of its construction was significantly lower. Its cost was "barely" 200 million dollars. On the Ras Abu Abboud highway, facilities for an oil company will be built.Although the official version states that: "it is not known at this moment where it will be removed and to whom this scenario will be given. For the moment, the government has not defined the country where it will be sent, but a couple of days ago its dismantling began".
It hosted seven matches since the group stage and its last match was Brazil's victory over Korea in the Round of 16. There were also matches between Portugal and Ghana, France and Denmark, Brazil and Switzerland, Poland and Argentina, and Serbia and Switzerland.
