the World According To Gordon Strachan

Hamstring

Guest
This is how to keep the press in their place .....


Some Strachanisms:

Reporter: After your good start to the season you must be thinking about
europe in the summer
Strachan: Of course i'm thinking about it, i'm taking my wife to Spain.

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 andI
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.

Reporter: Are you getting where you want to be with this team?
Strachan: We're not doing bad. What do you expect us to be like? We were
eighth in the league last year, in the cup final and we got into Europe. I
don't know where you expect me to get to. Do you expect us to win the
Champions League?

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

Reporter: How do you feel about your player Delgado's comments in the Press
this week?
Strachan: I've got more important things to think about. I've got a yogurt
to finish by today, the expiry date is today. That can be my priority
rather than Agustin Delgado.

Reporter: This might sound like a daft question, but you'll be happy to get
your first win under your belt, won't you?
Strachan: You're right. It is a daft question. I'm not even going to bother
answering that one. It is a daft question, you're spot on there.

Reporter: Bang, there goes your unbeaten run. Can you take it?
Strachan: No, I'm just 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: where will Marion Pahars fit into the team line-up?
Strachan: Not telling you! It's a secret.

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

Reporter: "Gordon, can we have a quick word please?"
Strachan: "Velocity" (then walks off)

Pure genius! especially the velocity comment, must have been damn quick thinking! get him back into football asap, we need him and his interviews - f**k it what's the chances of him being our next manager? his son did play for us...not quite an established legend, but nevertheless he did play for us!! (wonder what sort of comment he'd come out with if asked about the blues job?!)
