That article highlights how shit The Advertiser is. It starts off by saying that Cotterill is not interested in the Town job, "The Adver understands". It then goes on to list the jobs that he has had and states that he recently turned down the job of assistant manager at Birmingham......and the quotes him on the subject. On the Swindon job there is absolutely nothing other than the bit that "The Adver understands". No quote from Cotterill, no source given, just that "The Adver understands".

I've always taken that to mean they talked to somebody off record that didn't want to be named/quoted.

too much credit?

Well 6 years ago today we appointed PdC as new manager, how I would like another such ambitious appointment, altho with a little less mental illness thrown in this time.

Paolo wasn't mentally ill, he was just a narcissist with a mean streak who was given huge resources to throw at getting out of L2.

That too but I still maintain there was some form of mental imbalance in him.

I think he was just himself.

Many people can't accept that if someone is a bit different there must be something wrong with them.

power on BBC Wilts now.

down to 3 on short list but wants to talk to one or two others.

non committal on loans, up to new manager as he'll have 100% control. going in different direction next year

expects Sherwood to move on. only in for one widow to help Luke blah blah.

missed this BBC Wilts tweet:

LP: "Next season we'll have the highest budget - if not one of the highest budgets"

won't insist on Waterford friendly Smiley new management team will decide on who we play

Andy Hessenthaler was in The Jury's Inn bar last night. Although he was with 3 other guys who I didn't recognise so probably just coincidental.

He was a textbook narcissist. Narcissism is a mental illness which is frequently left untreated because it affects other people worse than the sufferer.

I also think he had a lot of ADD tendancies.

Like Trump. Probably related (the symptoms, not the two fascists in question).
