tin Posted January 28, 2022 Report Share Posted January 28, 2022 (edited) The biggest load of shit I've read in any publication for a very long time. Lazy, ill-informed, twisted, disrespectful journalism. The only way this could happen is if Nige was to walk away. SL would then have to bury his grudge with NW, many fans would have to get onside, and NW would have to be willing to reduce the wage bill when he's made a career out of spending other people's money. In other words, an article plucked from cloud cuckoo land. Edited January 28, 2022 by tin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The standard of journalism is shocking Don’t like Winter that much tbf, but Barney Ronay is incredible. As is David Walsh. If you like cricket Gideon Haigh and Mike Atherton are fantastic. But great journalism/writing does stand out like a sore thumb these days, not the other way around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umm ... most promotions of any manager ever, guaranteed to get players competing, guaranteed to get a team challenging at the top end of the championship, he’s not a premier league manager, use him to get us up then say thanks and pay him off, his media persona is well rehearsed and designed to take both the limelight and pressure off his players, his teams are ‘streetwise’ not ‘cheats,’ away from football he’s a top bloke who thinks it’s hilarious that people fall for his media act, he actually has great respect for Mr Lansdown, our club and our fans, he’s always wanted to manage our club, and yes I have met him .... have I missed anything?!

Whilst I agree with you that the doctor thing is embarrassing he’s a sports presenter from Bristol just thought I’d add it in the thread . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted January 28, 2022 Report Share Posted January 28, 2022 I wish these threads relating to an older football person didn`t just have the name as the title. I can`t be the only one who opened it in trepidation half expecting to find he had passed away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great news paper in the 70s and I think the top selling news paper in the UK 1975. If it was not for page 3 I do not know what I would have done when I was in my teens.

Very surprised you haven’t heard of him. Certainly one of my favourite ever journalists. He was extremely knowledgeable, and never afraid to draw upon his European experiences, especially Italy, to broaden his articles. The (mainly) rugby journalist Steve Jones was another.
