    I think he wanted a little more, shall we say, industriousness in the team that day. Chelsea could have ripped us a new one...

    The Asian lads who sat beside me used to call him The Jinky Jew. Sometimes The Jerusalem Jumper.

    Remember that game where we’d won the league and he basically had some of the finest players in the world at the time trying their best to tee him up to score and boost his confidence

    Christ. Remember when we were good enough to just toy with lower league sides like a bored cat with a crippled mouse?
