I was saddened to learn of Steve Coppell's departure from Reading.
From what I have seen of him he seems a decent manager and indeed a decent man with considerable dignity.
It does go to show though that the right fit between manager and club includes the whole dynamic, and not simply a question of having good management skills.
I can't help thinking there will be a few clubs queuing up to offer him a new position.
Oh and today's other piece of important news for any of you who watched the Champion's League Semi-Final second leg between the ManUre and the Arse and listened to Jens Lehmann at half time explaining away Almunia's goalkeeping error, is that it is highly improbable that a football speeds up in the air as suggested.
Talk about making yourself look silly.
Somehow I can't imagine Mr Coppell making such a claim. Can you?
He has far too much dignity.
