Redondo Saint Posted 2 February, 2009 Share Posted 2 February, 2009 Here are the best of Strachan's Sky Sports funnies... Reporter: Welcome to Southampton Football Club. Do you think you are the right man to turn things around? Stracham: No! I was asked if I thought I was the right man for the job and I 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. 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 of 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oz Posted 3 February, 2009 Share Posted 3 February, 2009 Gordon Strachan was apoplectic after Southampton's home defeat by Everton last weekend, describing it as ''the worst performance since I've been here''. The players were told to report for extra training at 10 o'clock on Sunday morning, though when they arrived there was no sign of the manager. At 10.20am coach Dennis Rofe received a call on his mobile phone suggesting they continue warming up and Strachan would ''be there soon''. Another 20 minutes went by when Rofe's phone bleeped again, and his master's voice said he still ''had things to do'' but would be arriving soon. Two hours dragged by and Strachan rang for the third time. ''Right,'' he told the players via Rofe, ''I've wasted your time this morning like you wasted my time yesterday''. And the line went dead.

Secret Site Agent Posted 3 February, 2009 Share Posted 3 February, 2009 I always liked his WGS approach to interviews and he always reinded me of a boss I had, (who has passed away) who was very quick with the sarcastic put down. I actually model my own management style on this as well. favorite WGS quote: 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. Favorite Boss quote: These things in my bowl aren't sweets, they are 'F U C K Off tablets. Now take one and F*** Off.
