In fairness, we complain when we get stories like "McEveley hoping for a win against <Saturday's opponent name> or "Navarro doesn't mind playing against former club <Wednesday's opponent's name> too. Not much the Adver can do really, it's not like there's much other sport in the town to concetrate on, our next two most successful sports teams compete in Speedway and Ice Hockey, which are hardly going to send the papers flying off shelves.

Smiley Fair enough. Seems a bit harsh to accuse the Adver of shit-stirring then?

Why they have been doing it for years anyway, I suspect this may also be to do with the fact that he seems happier to speak to the BBC rather than then!

I cannot be the only one that thinks initially of Gentle Ben when he sees that picture!

Well, Shaun Hodgetts is the "shit-stirrer" (aka reporter asking reasonable straightforward question answered by 20 minute rant) this time so maybe that will change Smiley

No, he asks a question, Paolo says something. He then makes a point of repeating what Paolo has said, followed by why?

I dunno why I am actually arguing this as I genuinely don't care! Must find something better to do in a wet lunchtime in Manchester!

Anyway if Bodins got any sense he is preparing his constructive dismissal case as we speak and will then jump ship to Torquay,

I wonder what the scenario would be if Bodin was airing his views in public though.
Bodin had done a decent job in my opinion and a long time before Paolo arrived.
On top of that he was a great player for the club and deserves better treatment than people just guessing that he is stirring.

He dosn't...its called being profesional....something that Paolo is at pains to stress to his players to do more thoroughly.

If Paolo is as good and clever as he says he is, then he doesn't mind his shit being stirred in public. He knows how media works, he's not the victim of the Adver and the BBC.

I thought byrne had carried out the groundwork with the youths and bodin just carried it on when he left?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Bodin

Byrne did a great job,but lets not forget  that Bodin worked here in troubled times for over 3 years and  didn't even have a contract...as well as caretaker manager for a while and then turning down the No 2 job at Torquay with Ling to stay here.

Now i can understand if Paolo wants rid of Bodin....my issue is that it is done in the right manner with no mud slinging.

Totally agree. The club really need to be careful.  As somebody mentioned, if Bodin took exception to this, they could be on sticky ground.

Quite honestly I'm sick of crap like this being aired in public.
