I missed it entirely. Was checking the Blues score (and Plymouth and Wednesday) on my phone.

Maybe he gets spotted weekly at Perton Golf Club (The Mount), so probably not.

Maybe? According to Wiki (I know) his dad is "about 94 years old" Maybe he should spend some time with Papa, rather than staying in England for tax reasons.

Looks like he's off to the San Siro rather than Stratford. It's an hour closer to pops. Makes sense really.

Maybe he's not that ill. Is the suggestion.

Is it? I've only suggested that maybe his dad wasn't as ill as was suggested. 18 months on, he's still got a dad to visit in San Sebastian, but he's spending his days in Tettenhall. It's fair game to question the honesty of Jeff as I and many others have done, but don't mention JL's dad who...

How about, no? I don't really think JL gives a fuck what I think anyway. You go ahead and be offended on his behalf though. Have a lovely day.

It's what makes me unsure his dad was ever the issue he was made out to be. That and you know, JL's conduct throughout his entire managerial career.

An issue, yes. The issue, not so much. Otherwise he'd have high stepped it back to the Basque Country in August for some more "quality time" wouldn't he? I know I would have.

I don't think his dad was ever the issue. The issue seems to have been assurances over funding and recruitment in my opinion. JL may well have been lied to. I'm not even sure I can blame Jeff for being a sneaky liar. If he did lie, his lies almost definitely kept us in the PL. Needs must I guess.

I've not seen the interviews yet. I've just sat through a rerun of the game on Danish TV. I don't know why I do it to myself. But Gary doesn't have to mention the previous coach at all does he? He left in August. It's May next week FFS. It has no relevance to anything.

Even if we'd got a point, we would rightly be spitting bullets about the turgid performance.

Here he is - Mr Excuse

We won't.

I too thought we'd overpaid, but he was still pretty good. Just never the number nine we craved and needed (need).
