    I wonder what attracted her to her multi-millionaire husband? (Thanks Caroline)

    Every has said that Edin is to blame for everything so surely he will have written off any bad press to the fact Edin was a control freak

    Remember in the matter of heart ‘mocumentory’ when Abbot said To Rahic ‘we should sign this Dutch striker from the Dutch 2nd division he’s a goal scorer and we can get him cheap

    ...
    Rahic said the Dutch 2nd level is poor

    Rahic wouldn’t allow abbot to sign him and The lad went on and scored
    33 in 38 and got a move to FC Twente the next season


    Abbott is ok

    Rahic was the joke, I don’t think Greg did anything wrong at Bradford seriously, he split up with his girlfriend because he took the job at city because she didn’t want him working silly hours going scouting and remember he was also dealing with cancer at the same time

    Don’t blame Greg
    Blame edin

    I wonder if any Mansfield fans rated the job Greg did there.

    I know that Carlisle fans didn't seem to have too many good words about his time up there and certainly his spell here was a disaster so it'll be interesting to see if the trend continued.

    “His success with the youth team over the past few seasons has been remarkable and he now deserves the opportunity to manage the first team

    I was in Carlisle a couple of weekends ago, and was chatting to a few lads that are season ticket holders there. They didn't have too many bad things to say about Abbott's time in charge. they weren't exactly saying he was the best manager ever or anything, but no major complaints.

    Great track record on strikers.

    Moved on Nahki Wells, Paddy Madden, Gary Madine and Andy Cook during his time.

    Anyone remember they name of the guy Abbo was trying to convince Rahic to sign on that video the club put out, I believe he was from abroad, just wondered if anyone could remember his name.

    No idea but I bet he had size 17 shoes and a big red nose to match his curly wig.
