Orlandi has new job outside football



None the wiser really. Orlandi seemed to be smarter than the average footballer (Calderon excluded naturally!) so it would be nice to think it is him.

Echoes of the Withdean era when some of our players were so crap that they didn't leave to join other clubs, they left to take up other PROFESSIONS :lol:

I can only think of Johnny Dixon who went in to the music business and was a close friend of Holly Vallance allegedly. Who were the others?

Slow Joe Gatting for one. Changed sports completely and became J S Gatting. Maheta Molango I don't think got another job in football. Paul Reid went back down under to his previous job as an occupational therapist, seem to recall, though he might have joined the A League temporarily.

He played professional football in Australia for Adelaide and then Sydney. Maheta continued to play football and is still doing so in Spain.

from Molango's wikipedia page...

'The day after ending his career with Brighton, Molango signed with Conference National side Grays Athletic until the end of the 2006–07 season. However, after just two appearances for the Essex club, he was released after just a month.[19]

Legal career[edit]
Following his release from Grays Athletic, he returned to Spain, trialling with Albacete Balompié in March 2007,[20] UD Las Palmas in July 2007[21] and Lucena CF in August 2007.[22]

Having obtained a LL.B and B.A. Political Science from Charles III University of Madrid, he joined the employment law department of the Madrid office of Baker & McKenzie in April 2007.[23] In January 2008 he moved to the United States to study for the LL.M program in International Legal Studies at the American University Washington College of Law graduating in 2009 whilst also being the recipient of the college's Rubin Scholarship.[23] Returning to Madrid and Baker & McKenzie, he played part-time football in the 2009-2010 season for FC Villanueva del Pardillo in group one of the Preferente before moving on to join their divisional counterparts Unión Adarve for the 2010-2011 season.'

Molonga played a part in the Ulloa transfer I think, and also worked on our pre-season tour last year
