    "One minute we're thinking: 'He's an ugly, French. one-eyebrowed git'

    type.				- Man Utd fanzine on Ooh Aah.
    
    
    Kenny Dalglish can go out and buy the best full-back for Blackburn
    Rovers, but if I talk about buying big, I mean getting someone who is
    siz feet four.			- Mike Walker, Norwich manager
    
    
    The defence was awful, we were terrible in midfield and the attack was
    crap.  Then we got worse.		- Ron Atkinson, Villa manager
    
    
    Hardmen ?  Well there was that picture of Vinnie Jones holding Gazza's
    wotsits.  In my day we called someone who did that a poof.

    Paul McGrath arrived as expected at a question-and-answer session on

    I met Mick Jagger when I was playing for Oxford Utd and the Rolling

    famous as me.			- Ron Atkinson
    
    
    
    The England fotball team have released a video called "100 best

    re -1 
    
    Sooo, lets get this right....
    
    You're saying that Spurs players *give* bribes....Well it's certainly a
    novel idea. "Here boss, I'll slip you 20 grand and you'll let me stay
    on for another season". However, on second thoughts, with the players 
    Spurs have had in the past it's not so unlikely is it.
