He is now saying he did not like it, but if that were the case, he had ample opportunity to put it right there and then. Given they were simply echoing his message, I find it astounding that anyone would take his later comments at face value. No doubt Chuck Schumer, Lindsay Graham and the GOP will accept it as the excuse for keeping on supporting him as the only option for the party in 2020, now that they no longer have to take him to task on racism (or the "R" word for those too sensitive).

He has no interest in doing anything other than being PM, including doing his current job. Pure self-indulgent narcissism - not that Johnson is any better (or Corbyn would be for that matter) BAU

Literally the only way they can spin it. The gammons will lap it up, because it fits with their view of life, not with reality.

They don't like it up em Captain Mainwaring

Jimbo's telly

Bet our new manager could, being hopeless novelist, as well.

Which is fine if you are paying peanuts, but this is huge gamble and looks like a trophy signing and a wind up of Rafa. I would hate to be in Penfold's shoes if he can't sell him for a profit (including agent's fees, wages, match subs, etc., etc. ..... of course)

You'd need to stand a long way back.

Would be funny if it actually said "Ashleyout.com" but Penfold had not checked it out

Started watching half way through and decided I didn't recognise half the players, and hated the shirt. Gave up - as did the players, clearly

Sort of explains Sherwood's success as a manager, doesn't it

Be interesting to see if Bruce is expected to put his hand in his pocket for transfers

Which should mean he does not fit the "model" or has that changed now that our world class manager is gone and Mrs Doubtfire is in his place?

It was a similar situation with Schteeeve - just wanted an old school English manager who would do anything for the job. What on earth was Penfold doing flying off to Europe to look for a manager, when they were only going to look at English dinosaurs?
