    He's bad news and someone who's living off his past.
    Remember him standing in front of Will V,s run up for a throw in.
    Forest bench laugh at him, probably out of fear, and so WV pushes him out of the way.
    He then complains about it. What me???Prat.

    How do these guy keep getting management jobs?

    We've done the right thing with Warne. We got ourselves off the management merry go round that Stewart had us on.

    A brilliant story about when he was manager at Sunderland. Alegiadly he walked into the dressing room prior to a big league game.....his words were something like:

    "Fuc####g dancing Queen before a man's football match".

    Not impressed apparently.
    PS: I thought it was funny and the picture of him was magic.

Great manager but Villa always said he threw money around. I was looking forward to attractive football from them this season too.

    I think player complaints over a manager is a disgrace and the ringleaders need shipping out. It shows that the club / board is weak and are not "football" people.

    Shocking from a club of Forest's calibre - I wonder what Cloughie would do - it would makes Fergies hairdryer treatment like handbags at 10 paces.
    Cloughie would do the same as he did at Leeds probably with the players there!

    Clough had a sharp football brain, Keane is just a thick bog trotter

    You're very right Grist. It was written in response to the players revolt at forest and the question of what Clough would have done in the same situation. I just mentioned his simular problem at Leeds and what happened to him there.

    Believe it or not it was attempted at Rotherham not so long ago which resulted in the players being shipped out.

    According to one of our previous owners Clough and Taylor were very close to becoming our management team.

    Judgement needed on whether you believe him or not

    I don't
    ... must have been Anton, and I'm still trying to find that reggae single that his "personal friend" Judge Dread made that was going to be the Millers new signature tune and was going to be available in the Red and White shop in a "few days time"... back in the early 1980s .
    It sounded quite good, but I'm no reggae expert. What was played over the tannoy at Millmoor might not have even been by Judge Dread

    But what a past! An absolute animal to play against. I much prefer him to some of the darlings of today.
