ISA STAR WARNED: "SHAPE UP OR SHIP OUT!"
ISA player, Bryan Coleman, is reported to be in an emotionally fragile state following the shock announcement by long-term girlfriend, Heidi, that she would be leaving him if he did not address his escalating weight problem.
Coleman (26) is known to have taken the news badly and only last Sunday, was seen out with fellow players and the ISA manager, Scott Ditchfield, on a lengthy drinking session at the Oaklands pub in Hoole (a popular venue for the ISA players). A source close to Coleman described it is an emotionally difficult time for the much maligned full back. The source stated that "Bryan has had a difficult year in terms of confidence. His rapid hair loss has hit him hard and now this! I just feel terrible for him"
Coleman was believed to have intentions to marry his beloved girlfriend of over a year, and was cheekily dubbed 'Lord of the Rings' by fellow ISA stars following an apparent sighting outside the 'Bargain Jewels, jewellery discount magastore' in Wrexham. At the time, Coleman was quoted as saying that it was "the happiest point in his life so far" and he added that "being with this fine woman is better than scoring a late equaliser on Wezzy Park and saving a five-a-side penalty in Blackpool all rolled into one!"
Whilst the warning from Heidi was only described by her as a "suggestion", it is believed that she has issued an ultimatum whereby Coleman lose the estimated 3 stone of excess by the end of this year or face the prospect of "line dancing alone".
A source close to Heidi stated that she "very upset and distressed" by recent events. Heidi is believed to have confided in friends, asking for advice on how to straighten out her man. In a candid interview with a national magazine, Heidi described the problems faced within their home. "Bryan can be a nice guy at times and I love him to pieces. But I do get fed up when I'm promised sex, only to have to peel him off the sofa in a pool of his own bodily fluids following 14 cans of Stella at 8 in the evening"
Heidi also expressed concerns regarding Coleman's hair loss stating that "I recently saw pictures of Bryan taken a few years ago when he played for the Highfield and I was shocked! He had a trim figure and thick curtains for a hair-do! My! just a fringe would be nice now, even without the curtains!" Notwithstanding her concerns, Heidi is believed to have agreed to stay with Coleman to see if the widely held belief that bald men are more virile is, in fact, true. Sources close to Heidi revealed that thus far, she has been sorely disappointed.
The couple are rarely out of the public eye and only two months ago, came fourth in a national line dancing contest. Bryan described the moment as "magical" and he also spoke of his "secret love for the dance" even though he conceded that he received "some proper pain" from his ISA team mates.
Coleman is also believed to have spent colossal amounts of money in gambling establishments and was seen recently in 'Mecca Bingo' collecting sizable winnings following a long night at 'the table'.
It is thought that Coleman has investigated the possibility of joining a gymnasium such as the 'Crabwall Manor Spa and Health Club' (frequented by some of the ISA's fittest and most dedicated players). Sources close to Coleman have stated that he has now made the decision to "jib that off" and opt for the Slimfast plan instead.
Coleman's team mates are said to be "right behind him" and a source within the dressing room stated "Nobody likes to make fun of Bryan - it just isn't the ISA way of doing things. We will continue to give Bryan the support and respect we have always done".
Supporters echoed the sentiments. Celebraty Season ticket holder, darts star, Lee 'Prince of the Port' Miller, stated that the supporters would stick with Coleman no matter what. Miller stated "Although the lad may not be the greatest player in the world, he remains a popular figure within the terraces at the Imps". "It's easy to forget what a great servant he's been for this club". Miller later clarified that by saying that "To be fair, I guess it's not actually that easy to forget, the **** reminds us every five minutes!"
It must be said, Bryan is lucky to have such a supportive group around him and hopefully we will all see him bounce back soon.
