Former Coventry City striker and fans favourite target for abuse Kevin Kyle has admitted that he wasted his money gambling.
The striker, who has has recently moved from Kilmarnock to Hearts revealed that he turned down lucrative offers from several, but opted to stay in Scotland.
"Sometimes in life money, is not everything." Kyle told The Scotsman, "I know a lot of people disagree with that but I had all the money years ago when I played with Sunderland and Coventry and I p***** it up a wall gambling. So money doesn't always make you happy."
"The happiest I have been was the first year at Kilmarnock, playing football and knowing what my wage was. Hopefully I will get that same feeling playing for Hearts."
