I posted this a few days back in the general football thread. I thought it was Joe Cole but people are saying its Dave Kitson.

I don't think The Secret Footballer is one person. The column is well written in a consistent style, which suggests that a Guardian journo is speaking to several sources, and aggregating their experiences into a column.

Candidates often suggested include David James, Danny Murphy, James Beattie and Kevin Davies.
