  1. but the article also says and so which line is true?
  2. jimmy's interview on setanta: "we dominated, individual mistakes..." host: "did you see it that way Scott..." scott booth: "dominate... ha ha ha ha...No"
  3. 10CC : don't squeeze me like toothpaste
  4. Baby I Don't Care - Transvision Vamp
  5. modest mouse: space travel is boring
  6. Billy Joel: We Didn't Start The Fire
  7. the cure : fire in cairo
  8. one goal in 4 games... only another 116 games to go
  9. Oops Upside Your Head - The Gap Band
  10. the smiths: please please please let me get what i want
  11. Hue and Cry: Ordinary Angel
  12. Neds atomic dustbin: Not Sleeping Around
  13. the bit in the article that stood out for me was the bit about telling young his season was over. What kind of manager tells a player that his seasons over? How is that supposed to work? The fact that Young gave him a dirty look back kind of tells you that the player didn't appreciate it. And then he blabs that the incident to the press? You have to wonder sometimes about what goes through calderwoods head? In one of Fergies book's he talks about dealing with the press, and how you never mention the other team just before you play them as it can only back fire. You build up your team, reinforce ideas you have been saying to your players, and sow seeds of doubt about your tactics. You only mention your enemy's when you are not playing them (like Fergie's classic that caused Newcastle and Keagan to blow it). And you never seperate your players from the team unless it is to praise them. Yet before rangers last week all we heard was how great wee barry was - and this week he is giving an ultimatum to 2 players, and telling another to go off on holiday.
  14. one option that is missing would be "Gardening Leave" basically keep paying him his salary - but remove him from the position of manager (ala Gretna and the alexander/irons situation) advantages would be - no large lump sum payout, and jimmy would really be forced to find another job (and then get off the wage bill - or risk 3 years out of the game and have no reputation at the end of it. And if he tried a stunt like rowan alexander - his reputation would end up in the bin too! So Gardening Leave gets my vote {although in know that in reality it would be suntanning in magaluf leave}
