Tottenham winger John Chiedozie took that phrase literally, setting up a children’s entertainment company which rented out bouncy castles.Chiedozie played for Leyton Orient, Notts County, Tottenham, Derby County and Chesterfield during a successful 13-year professional career from 1977 to 1990.His prowess on the flanks, which peaked in the 1984/85 season when Spurs finished third behind Everton and Liverpool in the top flight, saw him capped nine times by Nigeria.When he retired from playing in the 1990s, he and his wife set up Bumpers, a company which hired out everything you would need for a children’s birthday party in Hampshire.Parents looking for inflatables and animals for their upcoming party in the New Forest area back in the 1990s may have been surprised to be dealing with a former footballer who has received an Order of the Niger for his services to Nigerian football.Chiedozie, who moved to England at the age of 12, in 1972, without being able to speak a word of English, was not just involved in the children’s entertainment business from his home in New Milton on the south coast.He didn’t completely leave football behind, getting involved in coaching his son, Jordan, who is now 27 and plays for Ramsgate in the Isthmian League South East Division.Want to be on the ball with all of the latest football news?Well then sign up for the brilliant Daily Star football email newsletter!From the latest transfer news to the agenda-setting stories, get it all in your email inbox - don't miss a thing.It only takes a matter of seconds.Simply type your email address into the box at the top of this article and hit 'subscribe'.And that's it, job done.
