Gordon Strachan

On the box at the Spurs game. Wife just turned to me and asked "what did he say?"

Had to be honest and reply "**** knows".

 

Proper Ginger wee c u n t was Strachan.

If I remember correctly, at one point some SAFC fans were wanting to appoint him as manager (pre-RK).

I would have gone off to support Boro (could never support the filth)

Yes, be careful, he might be our next manager!

 

Must confess, saw the title of the thread and had a shudder, thought you had heard something

 

I'd rather see a managerial dream team of Rose West and Donny Osmond than that ginger gibbon.

 

What a horrible thought, eh? One advantage, though - following a defeat at least you wouldn't be able to understand all the old bollocks that they come out with. You know what what I mean - learn from this; move forward; work hard on the training ground, etc..

When will we hear the first "kickstart the season" this year?

 

Not for me as our manager.
Got to admit I love the guy as a person and a footballer.
Plus he has came out with some great oneliners.

My absolute favourite first..............

Reporter: "Gordon, can we have a quick word please?"
Strachan: "Velocity." As he walks off.

Reporter: "Bang, there goes your unbeaten run. Can you take it?"
Strachan: "No, I'm going to crumble like a wreck. I'll go home, become an alcoholic and maybe jump off a bridge. Umm, I think I can take it, yeah."

Reporter: "There's no negative vibes or negative feelings here?"
Strachan: "Apart from yourself, we're all quite positive round here. I'm going to whack you over the head with a big stick — down, negative man, down."

Reporter: "Gordon, do you think James Beattie deserves to be in the England squad?"
Strachan: "I don't care, I'm Scottish."

Reporter: "Gordon, if you were English?"
Strachan: "I'd top myself."

 

I have to admit that the guy is a total tool - he isn't witty or clever and if he ever took over as boss then quite properly I think there would be a fans revolt.

 

Thats me told then.






Reporter: You don't take losing lightly, do you Gordon?
Strachan: I don't take stupid comments lightly either.

Reporter: So, Gordon, in what areas do you think Middlesbrough were better than you today?
Strachan: What areas? Mainly that big green one out there..

 

Some crackers there marra....When I have ever watched him being interviewed, he always looks to me like he could turn and smack someone any second...He seems a decent enough bloke to me, but I would never want him as a manager...

 

Got to agree manager wise.
But I would love to go out on the piss with him.

 

Reporter: Gordon, you must be delighted with that result?
Strachan: You're spot on! You can read me like a book.

Reporter: Welcome to Southampton Football Club. Do you think you are the right man to turn things around?
Strachan: No. I was asked if I thought I was the right man for the job and I said, "No, I think they should have got George Graham because I'm useless."

Reporter: Is that your best start to a season?
Strachan: Well I've still got a job so it's far better than the Coventry one, that's for sure.

 

TBF to him he could have screwd the boro by fighting for a pay off but didnt, credit where its due

 

Pretty sure it was out of respect for Gibson.
A chairman that deserves respect and hasn't had the best of luck.

 

true

 

classic

Go out for a drink with Strachan? your kidding pal. He would end up ripping the piss out of you and insisting that you call him Gordon 'Strawn' - which is apparently how he wants Strachan to be pronounced.

 

I wouldn't want him as a manager , but he is worth hiring just to do post match interviews.

 

made my bladder stir, sir.
