He is looking old these days isnt he, them 4 years at the helm for us must have took its toll.

Well done John, always wore his heart on his sleeve when he managed us, one of my favourite managers.

Good man, Grecian.
Hadn't struck me before but he played and managed us, QPR and Derby. Are there any other people who have both played and managed for three or more of the same clubs?

A pre season tour of India and China would be something fascinating for us to do in future.

Well done John.  Long forgiven you for not signing Robbie Keane.  Perhaps it is the passage of time but we seemed in the past to have managers with real personalities.  John, Sir Brian, BFR, Ron Saunders, SGT.   Latterly we have had such dull, lumpen, grab the money and run, boring men.
