“Hey Brian, which club was it where you took a side with parachute payments and a squad good enough for automatic promotion, including 2 former England internationals, and took them to the brink of relegation, alongside the limpest display ever witnessed by them in a Sheffield derby…..and then never did any meaningful coaching again?”
Shouldn’t be welcome back at the lane but I guess it’s an easy bit of income for the club to host the event that’s probably been organised by a 3rd party for armchair Man U fans.
Plenty of Blades players and managers have come up short and I don’t hold it against them but this bloke clearly didn’t give a fuck about the club.
By all accounts the players liked him, probably because they all watched him as a kid and he let them go out on the piss whenever they wanted.
