I'm pretty sure most lower league 'out of work' managers would jump at this. If things go belly up the blame can forced upon the players/situation inherited, and if things turn out for the better he will be seen as some sort of Messiah with a 12 week holiday at the Grosvenor to boot;

Dear Simon, ...


But on a serious note, get well soon Martin - and I'm sorry Mr Shankly your words don't wash with me - football is not that important.

The thing is, you know you're nuts.

It's that ones that don't know they're nuts that are the problem

You do realise that some have to smoke weeeed on an agricultural scale to get anywhere near us of the Society of Professional Social Drinkers.

When are TUFC going to name their piss artist(s)?

It is said, honesty is the best policy. <!>

Here's another one : truth debilitates, oops, hurts. <!>

If you're looking for truth and honesty, you'll be "lucky" if you find it in this life.

I can't believe no one has mentioned brucie.......Always picks the right team, has the best knowledge, formation, will bollock a player for being crap.The man is a L2 Fergie

this is quality.... not sure about being our manager though........ explicit content be warned *

id have dave caldwell back here anyday , i know sediment in football prob does not work but he was my favourite player back in 1988 and i know the passion would be there. clearly something thats lacking

* ps dave if you see this how are the dvd's i sent you *

dave caldwell is a legend, end of, the guy would motivate thats for sure, look how he played, gave his all, when he gave alvin martin the runaround against west ham, coventry wondered what at hit them at highfield road in that cup game. what a player.

DVDs were great many tahnks, we need to have a beer next time im down, if the Chairman calls it will be next week!!!

Nothing against the bloke, just not my cup of tea, hes good entertainment, but players need to be respected if they are to trust you, although he would get a short term reaction, then it would become all too familar and expected. Is he out of a job???????

Sitts is a cab driver, the youtube interview is class. He got shafted by that programme, there is far worse said in football clubs than what he said in all honesty. England left back with 100 caps shot a youth team player with an airgun and just carries on, i'd say that's worse than calling an underperforming player a Stephen Hunt.
