Chappy retires :( Merged - BBC Interview (P6)

[Skashion]

Hugh Ferris is still surviving though. The club remains mired in cheese.

Cook amd Mancini who were both fired you mean?

Thought so.

Cook and Mancini who took us from 10th to Champions in 3 seasons. Cook and Mancini who won our first trophy in 35 years, our first title in 44 years, yep those two.

But forget about that, and keep harking back to the days of drinking Mild in the City Social club with your "In the Know" mates, and how we were a "proper club" when we were in the 3rd division.

The reason Cook and Mancini were so great is because they were so ambitious and driven that they wouldn't let dullards like you who would have preferred us to stay the cosy old boys club who never achieved anything get in their way. :-)

Your assessment of DD as some misty-eyed, mawkish sentimentalist is wholly wrong. He has as good a feel for the reality of this club's history, good and bad bits alike, as any other poster. He is a realist, with a healthy dose of cynicism thrown in.

Also, he doesn't strike me as a mild drinker.

Not sure on the Mild, but he reminds of one of those old timer Main Stand types who smoke JPS, drink Mild and wear the same beige trench coat season after season. The type who alludes to knowing people in The Masons and thinks it will impress people.

The misty eyed suggestion was a reference back to one of DD's more infamous posts where he suggested the 3rd Division play off was a better day than when we won the league with the Aguero goal.

Oh Jesus. Are we still doing this?

Not seeking to trespass upon your squabble, but it's a subjective view, not without some foundation in logic and therefore one he's perfectly entitled to hold.

Anyway, as I say, not seeking to involve myself anymore than hitherto. I'll leave you to it :-)

He would strike me as a bit ''marmite'', really. When he's being sensible, he's alright. But as soon as he starts doing those daft faces and silly voices, I switch off.

What about Nicola McCarthy? Didnt she say hello to Chappy once and this new girl got the job we saw in Scotland tour videos?:)

Son. I appreciate you've spent three years trying maniacally and unsuccessfully to score points over me.

But don't make shit up, eh?

You can't win this fight. Get the message. It's over. Finished. Like your two heroes.
