It was funny I admit. To be honest I can't say I had anything against Thompson as a man, he seemed a bit of a character and would probably be good company in an alehouse. Last time I heard he was doing match summarising on BBC Radio Lincolnshire.
I didn't have much time for him as a football manager though. Perhaps the negative memory is worse because he somehow got the job twice and failed both times. Come to think of it, let's hope history doesn't repeat itself with any more recent Notts managers...
