    I think he appeared decent on the surface but behind the scenes he was really mean and made the players run till they were tired and forced them to work on the difficult stuff. And I think he might have told them they were **** if they were as well. Not nice.

    What’s that based on? I don’t know what he was like behind the scenes but we looked fitter under koeman so I don’t think he trained them that hard. He persisted with Redmond who was not the next thiery.

    Yes, blue ink. Firing an unpopular manager who got 10th and a cup final but persisting with a nice guy who got the worst win record of any manager seemed to warrant a bit of sarcasm. Fran was on the money.

    Their coach is nothing special - standard Volvo as I understand.

    It might sound dull and boring but it has some interesting features. And possibilities. Gets them to their Final destination without much fuss.

    Has tinted windows though.

    Actually to go slightly (well completely) off topic. Who can remember when things such as 'Tinted Windows' and 'Electric Windows' were not so much as an extra on cars, but an expensive extra. My neighbour recently bought his son an older car to learn to drive in and his son was perplexed on how to open the window (he thought it was quite retro and cool in the end) and kept leaving the doors unlocked as it didn't have central locking :)

    Just showing my age I suppose. Though I know some on here will probably bring up horse and carts.

    The great thing about non-electric windows is that you can open and shut them without turning the car on. I like having electric windows, but curse them regularly when I go to get out of the car and the windows are open....and I have had to open car doors when left in a hot car while the owner goes on an errand. Not everything is progress.

    You can drive a car to football....phew, good save there....back on topic.<laugh>

    Leicester have also done something novel with Puel that we should have tried, and bought some strikers.

    Looks like Saints picked a group of non-starters to model the shirts.
