Alex Bruce must be seething reading this, because he will be.

This is the thing- Eddie must be pinching himself every day He’s got the most challenging, but potentially most rewarding job in the Premier League, if not the world of football, and he’s, so far, doing everything right. Even if we do, somehow, fuck it up and go down this season, there’s no one I’d trust more than him to bring us back up, and then kick on up the league again. He’s relatively young for a PL manager, and by his own admission is keen to learn and adapt, which can only be a good thing and rub-off on the squad too. I fucking love the bloke, and I hope he’s around long enough to win us out first cup, whatever that may be.

It’s probably very premature of me, but that won’t the first or last time, but I honestly think that he could end up as a less charismatic, but just as important to the club, Keegan type figure. There are certain parallels with KK’s time that I can see being replayed- the club coming out of a seriously shite period of underinvestment and disengagement with the fans, New owners with a vision, ambition, and a chequebook to make you weep tears of joy. A lack of expectation, for want of a better word, from the media as a whole ( he’s pretty much seen as a stop-gap manager until we’re in a position to challenge the usual suspects). What I’m saying is that I think we’ve got someone in him who’s not yet the finished product, but definitely has the potential to be excellent, much like the club, and if it goes well I’d like to see him given the chance to grow with us, instead of getting some “name” gaffer in a few years. If he gets it right, and he’s got the financial clout so it’s purely down to him making the right choices, and he wins us our first silverware in almost a lifetime, he’s got himself Legendary status… and I honestly think he’s the bloke to do it. There.

So sorry to hear about your old man Strawb I can sympathise with you- my old man decided against treatment as his was too far gone, it’s awful thinking about him having to make that choice, but as you say- I was very proud of him when he did.

I was in the pub the other day and a massive tiger came in and approached the bar. “ I’ll have a rum and…” then, 2 minutes later, “… coke please Barman!” The barman said, “ Ok, but what’s with the huge pause?” Tiger said, ” Oh, I get them from my dads side of the family”. Fuck off. 👍
