Is Steve Coppell a bit mental?

[grjt]

Another resignation early on in a managerial tenure...

 

[Oncy]

He's like Keegan but with managerial talent.

Ahhhh my old school classmate does seem a bit fragile

He's got to be untouchable now right?

Walked out now about 4/5 times, twice within days/ weeks of taking over.

A scouser who played for Man U? Yeah, all the evidence is there!

Maybe he thinks he's got a shot at the Villa job, ha!

Nope, he's declared that he wont manage again.











For now.

 

[Judge Jules]

He might struggle to find another employer anyway after this.

He was brilliant at Reading where he stayed a long time and they missed him a lot when he went.

I once played at a golf day in the group behind him and he seemed a quiet guy - I could believe he was a sensitive sort of bloke that would walk if it wasn't right emotionally. That said, a lot of his chat seemed to involved Thailand and ladies from there.

I did indeed and was quite friendly with him for a couple of years.
Up until he was about 14 he was almost a midget, and certainly the smallest boy in the year. It was in fact thanks to Vlad, the young mans scything tackles on him that he made it as a decent player. He is actually a very good cricketer and could have made it at a high level
