These are old, but I just found an unopened email with these in.
Southampton manager Gordon Strachan on Wayne Rooney:
"Its an incredible rise to stardom. At 17 you're more likely to get a
call from Michael Jackson than Sven Goran Eriksson."
Reporter: "Gordon, Do you think James Beattie deserves to be in the England squad?"
Strachan: "I dont care, I'm Scottish"
Reporter: "Gordon, can we have a quick word please?"
Strachan: "Velocity" [walks off]
Reporter: "Welcome to Southampton Football Club. Do you think you are the right man to turn things around?"
Strachan: "No, I think they should have got George Graham because I'm useless."
Reporter: "Gordon, you must be delighted with that result?"
Strachan: "You're spot on! You can read me like a book."
Strachan: "I've got more important things to think about. I've got a yogurt to finish by today, the expiry date is today. That can be my priority rather than Agustin Delgado."
Reporter: "Bang, there goes your unbeaten run. Can you take it?"
Strachan: "No, I'm just going to crumble like a wreck. I'll go home, become an alcoholic and maybe jump off a bridge. Umm, I think I can take it, yeah."
Reporter: "So Gordon, any changes then?"
Strachan: "Naw, still 5ft 6, ginger hair, and a big nose!"
Reporter: "Where will Marion Pahars fit into the team line-up?"
Strachan: "Not telling you! It's a secret."
Reporter: "So, Gordon, in what areas do you think Middlesbrough were better than you today?"
Strachan: "What areas? Mainly that big green one out there.... "
Reporter: "So, Gordon, any plans for Europe this year?"
Strachan: "Aye, me and the wife quite fancy Spain in August"
