Views from the Sieve

Reading a book called 'Living in the volcano' (about football management).

Shaun Derry describes Boucard and Labadie as 'big characters' and how they had a huge slagging match during a training session. The fact they are both in our squad is described as 'bizarre'.

A neat story that I think sums up our problems at the moment, specifically that our players don't seem to care!

Is that from the same guy who wrote 'The Nowhere Men' about scouting?

Any good?

I'm getting asked hints for christmas already

It's a fantastic read! Definitely recommend it.

There's a few decent autobiographies from footballers that reveal a bit - one's maybe you wouldn't expect.

I've read Chris Hargreaves and Keith Gillespies, very insightful and well worth a read, available dirt cheap on amazon. (Although I wouldn't get them as a Xmas gift, the person you're getting them for would probably be a bit disappointed).
