cambridgeshire canary 6,801 Posted January 18 (edited) No, not a transfer signing rumour 😉 Decent striker who has since revealed himself to be quite the idiotic hothead it seems. Never did understand why he's tried becoming a manager when its always been clear when you hear him speak for more than a minute that there's not much going on in his brain Edited January 18 by cambridgeshire canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The thing about his comments on that right back being a kick away from the Prem 6 months ago and now being close to ending up in the National League, is that the same could be said about Deeney who was in the Championship 6 months ago and has managed 4 goals in 18 games in League Two this season, projecting much?

Never did understand why he's tried becoming a manager when its always been clear when you hear him speak for more than a minute that there's not much going on in his brain I recently listened to a podcast by Deeney and Defoe. It could best be described as a painful experience. Anyone who gives either of those two a management job must be mad. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drazen Muzinic 1,450 Posted January 19 Is my memory playing tricks with me or was he a n0bjockey about us early on in his career when at Walsall and we played them in League One? Can't remember the details but I do remember he carried on showing his n0bjockery when he got jailed for assault or something when at Watford? An unpredictable loose cannon for a while I guess. Leopards and spots and all that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jersey Canary 149 Posted January 19 Don’t forget Leroy Rosenior’s spell at Torquay. It lasted something like 19 minutes. He was appointed, the club was taken over and the new owners fired him straight away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king canary 7,678 Posted January 19 The owner of FGR is one of those who seemingly get suckered in by the lure of having a 'name' at the club at the publicity that comes with it. Similar experience with Duncan Ferguson who was hired and managed 1 win in 18 games. Deeney seemed to be much more focused his own personal brand than he did managing Forest Green. Lots of interviews that made headlines, loads of media appearances, very little coaching. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
