[LU] Revie, Clough etc

Interesting points of view, but we had the last great English manager. (Wilko, for those in denial). The fans booed him and he got sacked because we slipped to 9th after Batty etc were sold behind his back. No surprise then that Clough, before him, never got a chance at ER. The fans and owners

Thanks for the link mate, I couldn't get it as i'm not in UK at this time, got it now, brilliant, interesting to note they all say Sir Alex as best manager at the moment or most like the Don. Prejudices aside I have to agree, a fair and fun interview. Massive game this weekend, we need to
