The Football.....

That was kinda my point.

and you missed mine... you cant judge him on 6 weeks at Leeds, where the directors appointed him and then changed their minds effectively and refused to back him, so there is no hstory of Cloughie at a so called "Big" club as to whether he would have done any good or not.

He could bully and frighten ordinary players but he did not know how to handle experienced, top quality players who had done it all and knew their worth.

You're right, Trevor Francis, Des Walker, Stuart Peace, Steve Hodge, Roy Keane, Teddy Sheringham off the top of my head.

None of who were established stars when they came to him. He even got away with punching a young Roy Keane for giving away a goal, if he'd have tried that ten years later he'd have been eating through a straw for six months.

Nuno sacked.
That is so disappointing.He was doing such a good job I wanted him to stay 😉

£14m in his back pocket too .... tough job being a prem manager

Clough joined Forest after their previous manager was sacked after they lost 2-0 at home to Notts. Now if Notts had lost...

It has to be said that Nuno going isn`t a surprise. I`m pretty sure he`ll be relieved and of course a big cash payout will help!
If Conte signs then I`m afraid, under the current regime, he`ll be following Nuno shortly!
Nuno was 6th/ 7th choice so he never really had a chance to put his stamp on the club. I doubt Conte will either because the man up top will want to do it his way. That`s how he runs the club and always has. I`m not a Spurs fan but I have to admit seeing the way they play, and how they are run makes me feel a lot of sympathy for their fans.
Any top players will be running as fast as they can to avoid signing for them, Kane will leave ( for about a quarter of what he was valued at a couple of months ago) I can`t see things improving much to be honest.

He was great for us but was never going to last at any of the big clubs.

Good result tonight though for Wolves so happy.

Or Tottenham either, clearly.

Has Kane had some pretty poor advice over these last x years? Or perhaps trusted the words of the wrong people? Or perhaps he's just a decent bloke and actually believes and practices something akin to loyalty.

Loyalty !!!! Thats a nice word.
My memory may be playing tricks but I seem to recall players staying at a club until age etc forced a change.

Oh indeed! I did say "akin to", loyalty being such a quaint notion these days, reduced to badge kissing for Instagram posts.
