also remembering Harry Redknapp cheating on his taxes by opening a bank account in his dog's name, and then defending himself in court by claiming to be a simple East End football manager who couldn't read or write

This is especially funny considering all the times he's got huffy at anyone implying he's some stereotypical East End wheeler dealer

Also Phil brown taking the hull team for a walk around the city and claiming that he stopped to convince a lady not to jump off a bridge and then the players saying that didn’t really happen.

Prescient stuff from his agent

The Guardian posted:

Swales, who is sitting with us, starts to rage about the modern footballer. "They get to be 16 or 17, they score two or three goals, the newspapers blow them up to be something superhuman," he says. "And then they say, 'It's the pressure.' Bollocks! What pressure? See, Ryan appreciates he is doing something he enjoys, and he also enjoys what it brings, and by putting that with his family and his home, he's got the perfect life, so why bugger it up by playing away or insulting somebody?" As Swales fumes, Giggs sits with his hands on the table, undemonstrative, listening.

Celtic's PA announcer used to be a popular Radio Clyde DJ who went by the name of "Tiger Tim" Stevens. Until 1993, that is--and you have to remember that this was before Champions League games were always on Tuesdays/Wednesdays and UEFA Cup games were always on Thursdays.

Rangers played Levski Sofia away in a European Cup tie that, because of time zones, kicked off before Celtic's UEFA Cup tie against BSC Young Boys. Rangers got knocked out on away goals, and before kickoff at Parkhead Tiger Tim requested all fans in attendance stand for a minute's silence "in memory of Rangers' European Cup campaign, which was declared dead earlier today in Bulgaria".

Tiger Tim was fired for this.

This anecdote about Memphis Depay's time at Manchester United:

Wayne Rooney posted:

He came on at Stoke away and messed up for their goal.

So, Louis van Gaal made him play for the reserves the next day. I said, ‘Look, it’s a bit difficult. Just don’t come in with all your fancy stuff.’

And he turned up for the reserve game in his Rolls-Royce, wearing a leather jacket and a cowboy hat. And I just thought, ‘What’s the point?’
