    Nottingham Forest played badly one saturday 2 nil down in the first half. The players were in the dressing room at Half Time awaiting their rollecking from Cloughie but no sign of him.Just as the players were about to go out for the second half Cloughie pokes his head round the door and said my fault lads i picked the wrong team. Forest drew 2-2

    I remember the last interview with GS when r was in his car leaving SFC:

    Interviewer: Why are you leaving now, Gordan?

    GS: Well it's Friday, it's the end of the week...

    Aha

    I believe that's true. It may not be WGS, but the incident has certainly happened before.

    What's that one about a game between Saints and Pompey, during the 1980's, at Fratton Park, where money and bananas were thrown by the Pompey crowd. There was uproar, and when Lawrie was asked about it, he said something along the lines of... we got a good result today, and a pound and a half of fruit with £4.83 in loose change

    Or something like that.

    Another WGS classic was at his first ever press conference when he joined Saints:

    Interviewer: 'Do you feel you're the right man to turn things around here?'

    Strachan: 'No'

    Interviewer looks shocked...

    Strachan: 'Ask a stupid question, you get a stupid answer!'


    We all knew we were on for a interviewee gem straight away after that!

    " It was very nice to enter the locker room. There was a good feeling in there, and I got a good feeling from Kevin Doyle and Stephen Hunt."


    Reading new boy Marek Matejovsky is touched by his special welcome.

    Another from old 'Arry's collection!

    Interviewer Would you say you are a wheeler dealer

    'Arry I'm no wheeler dealer, I am a football manager...... (unfortunately I cannot repeat the words said by 'Arry due to there being no swearing on this forum but I will provide the youtube link)

    I remember one from Ron Saunders, I think when he was managing Villa:

    "Allegations are all very well but I would like to know who these alligators are."
