Looks like it's having an immediate impact.

If it wasn't for the 3 points Wolves got I'd be having a good laugh now. :mrgreen:

And another thing. People in shops asking the person behind the counter "Can I get a (latte, book on bee-keeping, whack in the chops etc) rather than asking "Please may I have....? or saying "I'd like....". No, you can't 'get' anything. Where the feck do you think you are? On the same theme, hearin...

I could but its needed to go with other bits and pieces, ...

Bizarre - he can't be the Manager because his work permit isn't right, so he'll do everything a Manager does, but that's ok because he's not called "Manager"?

He will take charge of Saturday's home game with Manchester United in that role as his work permit needs to be changed before he can become manager.
