    If you believe all the hysterics over on sp@zweb then COrtese is waiting in the wings fronting a mahoosive consortium that will buy out the Liebherrs!

    Should hopefully put that one to bed, then.

    It is a very positive interview. He advises our manager and players to stay at the club. As he says, if you sell your best players, you give up your ambition.

    No sure this is the full article.
    I've seen comments on other forums, where he says players are still in contact with him, yet claims to know nothing about what is happening at the club.

    I think he's being economical with the truth.

    Also saw comments about him returning his meal, over which the interview was happening, no fewer than 4 times, for different reasons, including one relating to peas not being a uniform size.

    Well that's certainly a hard hitting interview, pulling no punches and offering us great insight into the current set up at St Fairies.

    What a complete waste of money sending this idiot overseas for this rubbish. License fee schmicense fee.

    I was hoping there might have been some probing questions which would have answered why he left.
    The BBC might as well have sent Lorraine Kelly, she would probably have got more out of il duce than this bloke
