West Brom keeper Foster: Football not be-all-and-end-all

West Bromwich Albion goalkeeper Ben Foster admits he's no football tragic.

He says there are more important things in his life.

He said: "I don't get carried away with the whole football thing really. It is a job to me, to be honest.

"I do love playing on a Saturday but it's a job and there are a lot more important things in my life. My family is more important than anything else.

"But even people like my wife will agree, when I'm not playing first-team football I'm like a bear with a sore head and it's not nice. It does affect everything and I'm very happy and settled here."
