“I tried a couple of avenues – made a few calls, put my CV in for a few jobs like Brighton and Colchester, but I never got an interview. So I asked Steve Coppell if there was a position on the coaching staff coming up at Reading, where he was managing at the time. To be fair to him, he politely said ‘no’ and that’s how I ended up doing some work for Sky."

Wonder how us lot would have reacted if he'd got the job!

By simply applying shows he's incapable

Why would that **** think he would have even been considered for the job.

Very surprising. His utter hatred towards BHAFC is one of the less well-kept secrets.

Not surprising, he always come across as thick as shit - almost Mark Bright-esque levels of dumbness.
I believe he has a job as first team coach of some shite team so not everyone is a nasty racialist after all then.

Really? As a professed Christian I thought he would not display that. Good that Coppell himself did not feel like that eh?

I always thought Salako was one of the less objectionable of that mob.

Does it matter who a manager played for or previously managed?

I do like the idea of a player trying everything else before settling on working for Sky!

Bl**dy hell, take it easy. "Brighty" is on a different level of idiocy.

I stand corrected, the palace CJTC "Brighty" has just appeared (like a bit of dog egg on one's shoe) on the COC highlights on C5 - I'd forgotten what a div he was. THICK AS SHIT

Probably the only other candidate around the time Semi was hired.

Can't say Albion's own "Virgs" impressed me that much on C5 at the weekend. But he did play at the top level though like Brighty. Whoa, that was in Scawtland though..
