1. Ian Holloway
This is how Holloway described his Q.P.R team win against Chesterfield, pure Holloway gold.
To put it in gentleman’s terms if you’ve been out for a night and you’re looking for a young lady and you pull one, some weeks they’re good looking and some weeks they’re not the best.
‘Our performance today would have been not the best looking bird but at least we got her in the taxi. She weren’t the best looking lady we ended up taking home but she was very pleasant and very nice, so thanks very much, let’s have a coffee.’
2. Joe Kinnear
This is the Answer message Joe Kinnear had, and if you are wondering weather or not Ac Milan, Barcelona or even Real Madrid did ever call Joe, the answer is no.
“I’m out at the moment, but should you be the chairman of Barcelona, AC Milan or Real Madrid, I’ll get straight back to you. The rest can wait.’
3.Kevin Keegan
In his career as both a manager and a pundit Keegan delivered numerous classic quotes this one in the 1996 title run in is his best work.
“When you do that with footballers like he said about Leeds, and when you do things like that about a man like Stuart Pearce – I’ve kept really quiet, but I’ll tell you something, he went down in my estimation when he said that – we have not resorted to that. But I’ll tell ya – you can tell him now if you’re watching it – we’re still fighting for this title, and he’s got to go to Middlesbrough and get something, and… and I tell you honestly, I will love it if we beat them, love it!”
4. Howard Wilkinson
Wilkinson said this will at Leeds. It’s almost as if Howard new what was going to happen time and time again during his managerial career.
‘There’s only two types of manager. Those who’ve been sacked and those who will be sacked in then future.’
5. “Big” Ron Atkinson
Are how we miss the incite given by big Ron. A man blessed with more gold than your local high street jewellers. Ron never failed to give a good quote; here are some of his best pieces of work.
“I know what is around the corner. I just don’t know where the corner
is.”
“You can’t do better than go away from home and get a draw.”
“…using his strength. And that is his strength, his strength. You
could say that that’s his strong point.”
“Chile have three options – they could win or they could lose. It’s up
to them, the tide is in their court now.”
6. Senate Aldo Rebelo
Ever wondered how much Brazil want to win the World Cup? Well this is how much they want it.
“Second place in the World Cup is a complete failure. It’s like you are chatting up a girl and she says you are second in her affections because she prefers someone else.”
7. Brain Clough
Manchester United are heading of to the Club World Cup in Brazil, and in good form as usual, Brian wishes United the very best of luck.
“Manchester United in Brazil? I hope they all get bloody diarrhea”
8. Ian Rush
When Ian Rush moved to Juventus this is what he is reported to have told the media. It is not known if Ian actually new Italy was a foreign country.
“Playing in Italy was like playing in a foreign country.”
9. Gordon Strachan
The little ginger Scotsman was asked for a quick word by a journalist. This is his legendry reply.
“Velocity”
10. Mike Bassett
Although not a real live manager, no one can doubt the quality and passion of Bassett’s rage.
“F*cking better do this because you are f*cking this up. Kids would f*cking die to wear those f*cking shirts. You are all so f*cking useless. You gotta prove you can f*cking do this because at the moment you are f*cking losing 2-0 to the f*cking Mexicans!”
