Just about to get a new deal at QPR.  Fair play to him, I've always liked the bloke seems to be an heart on your sleeve kinda fella and hope he continues to do well at Loftus Road.

He is quite possibly the funniest managers in footie too, some of his quotes make absolutely no sense at all, genius.

Good news for us too, as there were rumours Diaz could be off to QPR at the end of the season.

Strachan was pretty entertaining during his post match interviews.

"Gordon can we have a quick word"

"Sure, velocity"

classic!

I dont think mourinho is arrogant, he just knows he's really really good. His track record suggests he has plenty to shout his mouth off about.

Some of his comments crease me up and I like the fact that he gets under fergies skin

Mourinho is a legend. The best manager in the world, maybe even better than Andy King. :shock:

strachan is the best pundit in football IMO. he is quick witted and really plays Alan Hansen down. He knows that all of the other pundits talk a load of bollocks! The way he analyses the game is also second to none

Holloway comes across as a simpleton but he does amuse and he must be getting something right.

Prof Stephen hawkins would sound like a retard if his voice thingy was set to bristolian

Ian Holloway has three kids and they are all deaf apparently, something called Glue Ear.

Not an attempt at a joke, just a rather sad fact.

When I sad, I don't mean pathetic or boring, I just mean sad.

Top manager though.

I saw the programme about him and his heart rate, it showed his daughters on there having arguements with him.  They said they can't understand why he shouts at them because they can't here him!!  He came across as a really nice bloke.  

Also at Loftus last season he clapped us Swindon fans who stayed behind to clap the QPR team and got the QPR fans to clap us too.
