    I wonder if anyone warned the County fans not to suggest his signings are a shambles?

    Even when they clearly were?

    I'm sure he'll be fine.

    His arrogance will no doubt have him lined up with a PL post.

    Wow, I’m my opinion he’s one of the nicest guys in football. Would go out for a pint with him any day!

    I can only judge him on the two occasions I've met him and both times he was arrogant, obnoxious and rude.

    Perhaps I caught him on a couple of bad days but like I say, I can only judge him on personal experience.

    Similarly I met him twice, once in a supermarket and another time in a pub and he was very pleasant to me.

    After the abuse his family took when he was Carlisle's manager I am surprised Greg has joined them as head of recruitment.

    Who else would employ him? Every job he's been at after he finished playing he's been terrible.

    In my personal experience his attitude towards fans also stinks so I can't think of a single positive endorsement in terms of anyone wanting to employ him.

    It's possible that is attitude to "fans" was a reaction to abuse directed at him. I would be the same. How about you. How would you react.

    You're putting 2 and 2 together and getting completely the wrong answer. I wasn't even at the fans forum.

    Maybe but as I said earlier, I can only offer my own personal experience of the two separate times I've spoken him.
