Pretty sure it's why he made sure to comment that today's was a 'good' question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair, Bailey's question about the England situation in the first press conference was a top journalistic question too and imo Russell could have answered it more fully....."water under the bridge" "made a mistake but have moved on".....kind of stuff. MB was being a good journalist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not a big deal, but a fair question imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not a big deal, but a fair question imo. Absolutely it's a fair question. He got in the passenger seat of his own car, and allowed his drunken brother to drive it at speeds of over 100mph in a 30mph limit. It's a miracle that nobody was killed, especially considering he hit another car head-on.

I also didn't know that it was the reason he lost the job with England, but it seems like both brothers quite rightly paid the price for their actions in the end.

Branston Pickle 3,698 Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) I still don’t see the relevance of this for a stint of two games as manager. The only response would be to flat-bat it which he did, so a bit pointless. Edited January 2, 2023 by Branston Pickle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
