(Posted with permission) The definition of ex-jock! This porky footballer ate away his abs over lockdown and now can’t shift the extra lbs!! He’s got a new diet and he can’t put down the junk food. All of his mates have been taking the piss since his 6 pack ballooned into a fat pot belly! There’s quite the contrast to the rest of the team now when he’s in the changing room. He can’t fit into his old kit because his body is too wide and doughy, and he’s only getting fatter since he hung up the football boots!!
He got a photographer to take some ‘sexy’ photos but instead they just show off how thick and chubby he’s gotten. Need to find a chubby chaser boyfriend now fat lad… there’s no hiding that belly!
Glasgow born footballer John Harley died on this May 15th 1960.
By1906 aged 20 Johnny Harley was a railway engineer working in Springburn, in that year he moved to South America to work on railways along the Río de la Plata. Initially he worked in Argentina where he worked for the Bahía Blanca and North Western Railway and the Buenos Aires Western Railway.
On arriving in Uruguay in 1909 Harley worked for the Central Uruguay Railway. He worked for the railway for 37 years until his retirement. During this time he also played football for teams in Argentina (Club Ferro Carril Oeste)and Uruguay (Peñarol), becoming known as Juan Harley or El Yoni. Peñarol managed the team when they won their first two league titles in 1918 and 1920. Harley’s time with Peñarol as a player and manager is considered significant for the fact that he changed the Uruguayan style of football from a focus on long ball to a game that featured short passing. This style of play is considered to have contributed to Peñarol and Uruguay achieving their success up to the 1920s.
El Yoni went on to win 17 caps for the Uruguay national team, he also managed the team for a year.
Johnny Harley is buried at the Montevideo British Cemetery.
