Sad, tawdry and actually professionally scandalous story on the BBC today re the termination of his career with a Malaysian club 'for his own protection' after racist abuse from his own fans.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49335642
According to his Wikipedia page, the guy's racked up a ridculous 16 clubs (including 6 loans) in 8 years since his little not very distinguished spell (22 apps, 3 goals) with us ended. Something not quite right there, I'd say, quite apart from his skin being apparently 'too dark' for those lowlife Malaysians.
On the subject of ex-Rs who don't cut it, anyone heard of what's going on with JET these days? |  |

22 games and 3 goals, yet I can barely remember him.
Is that correct? |  | | |

I was just thinking the same. |  | | |

I vaguely remember the song "one decent German, there's only one decent German"
Or something along those lines |  |

He's moved around a lot, true, but good luck to him. Very much a local lad and might have been with us longer if he hadn't been swept away by the promotion to the 'Prem' madness. 22 games and 3 goals for a young player nothing to be sniffed at.
A friend of mine is neighbours with the family and has followed his many travels - believe he enjoyed the lifestyle in Kerala which isn't hard to imagine. Seems like he's sort of used his football skills as a ticket to do a bit of globetrotting which isn't a bad idea - in many ways better than just kicking around the lower leagues. |  | | |

I remember a rather limp exit in the FA Cup to Sheffield United under Paul Hart where we somehow drew with them away and forced a replay before playing like a bunch of turds and going 3-0 down. German come on and nearly rescued it playing like a man possessed for 10 minutes, think he hit the post at 3-2. |  | | |
