    Brazilian legend Cafu is joinin non league team Garforth Town. Dunno what the story with this is, dont think he needs the cash, but the chairman said on SSN that cafu is their new right back. i wonder how winning the unibond league compares to winning the world cup, mad stuff

    Isn't that the same club that signed Socrates a few years back? They're bankrolled by some lad who runs a Brazilian soccer school and he's mates with all the players.

    They also signed Careca (aged 45) in 2005 I think. Puts bums on seats I suppose, but it makes a mockery of the club.

    Well at least Cafu isn't as far past it as the other two... I'd imagine he's be a pretty good asset still at that level.

    I heard about this too and thought it was a joke. There must be some connection between Brazil and the club, right?

    I remember I once signed the legendary Romario for Wolves in an old version of Championship Manager, while I was only in the [old] first division.

    Agreed, he was always a naturally fit guy and he should have an impact on the team, depending on the circumstances, i.e. how often will he available and for how long.
