My old trainer used to tell us not to blast, but to caress the ball whenever we took possession. If the ball were a woman... she would be spending all night with Berbatov.

I love Blackpool. We're very similar. We both look better in the dark.

Managing a league club is like making love to a mermaid... you should always be aiming for a top half finish

You can say that strikers are very much like postmen: they have to get in and out as quick as they can before the dog starts to have a go.

There was a spell in the second half when I took my heart off my sleeve and put it in my mouth.

Every dog has its day - and today is woof day! Today I just want to bark.

I watched Arsenal in the Champions League the other week playing some of the best football I've ever seen and yet they couldn't have scored in a brothel with two grand in their pockets!

My wife runs the house much better than I could so I think she could be a linesman or a referee or even a football manager and that's the truth.

This club needs an impetus of energy - but I just feel tired to be honest. I'm worn out.

Sometimes when you aim for the stars, you hit the moon.

Sepp Blatter and all of them lot Mr Platini I know he was a good player but he aint very good at what he does, I don’t think. I think he’s useless you can quote me on that.

In embracing your difficulties is liberation.

There is no respect for others without humility in one's self.

My goal is to teach readers how to treat and respect themselves and each other in an entertaining way. I do that in all of my books.

The double law of attraction and radiation or of sympathy and antipathy, of fixedness and movement, which is the principle of Creation, and the perpetual cause of life.

The only thing worth globalizing is dissent.

Steve Smith, thats what happened to us. He just kept making plays. We had a plan. We never really doubled him. We ran a lot of Cover 2, and obviously that didnt work out too good for us.

Acceptance says, True, this is my situation at the moment. I'll look unblinkingly at the reality of it. But I'll also open my hands to accept willingly whatever a loving Father sends me.

It is beautiful, the world, and life itself. I am glad I have lived.

What you do for your Self, you do for another. What you do for another, you do for the Self. This is because you and the other are one. And this is because...there is naught but You.

It's not about being a head coach, I'd rather be a DC at Auburn and win championships.
