So he hadn’t obviously stored the manager’s number in his phone.” This implies that even the players weren't expecting regular contact with Smith. Was this because Smith was more interested in golf than the squad? Or anything to do with his job? I'm sure you all have a view. I think it’s common knowledge he was more interested in the bookmakers than golf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glenn had a brain tumour before joining us and eventually died of same. Consider another sports personality - Sevy Ballesteros. He had same and made a career comeback in between. The medics now consider that he probably had this condition in some form or another for 15 years. His coaches during his comeback period believe that something wasn't quite right. Football Clubs have Boards of Directors that can take an overview of a situation. That's a really interesting bit of information. Was it known he had a brain tumour when we employed him?

It was while he was at West Ham United that he was initially diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2003. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glenn_Roeder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
