Reo-Coker in line for comedy award!
« on: May 10, 2011, 10:54:17 AM »
Greetings all, I'm new here and thought this would be a worthy first post.

There is understandably, a lot of confusion regarding the managerial situation at our club. All I will say on that matter (as others already have) is that health is far more important than a game and that I genuinely wish GH well in his recovery.

Ok, now to my post. Nigel Reo-Coker has come out with an absolute pearler and I just wanted to get your thoughts on it. I've provided a link to the article but for me there is one line that I can't get my head around.

“He is a great manager and I believe personally he has got us playing great football”

I think it it goes without saying that a player who has been frozen out for so long and then given an extended run in the team is gonna be friendly with the boss but does anyone actually subscribe to this "great football" idea that Nigel insists on?

He also deserves an award for thinking he can get an England place!
