Steve Coppell RESIGNS!

[Simon Morgan]

Was good enough to manage England after Sven, but wouldn't have fit in. Absolute gentleman and will be sorely missed from football management.

 

[CHAPPERS]

That was only a rumour.

 

[Easy 10]

BOTTLE JOB.

Good riddance to the prick. I hope he keeps to his word and never comes back.

 

[Martinf]

I wonder what Brizzle City fans are making of all this. The Gas though, will be pissing themselves over this.

 

[Laughing Gravy]

BOTTLE JOB.

Good riddance to the prick. I hope he keeps to his word and never comes back.

You are a nob

 

[Gerbil]

BOTTLE JOB.

Good riddance to the prick. I hope he keeps to his word and never comes back.

 

[ILOVEBHA]

Next Villa manager

 

[Simon Morgan]

To be fair Millen (?) did very well for them after Johnson left, was quite surprised they went for someone else in the first place, even it was Coppell.

 

[El Presidente]

Conspiracy theory, putting together

1: The alleged reason why Coppell quit at City after just 33 days, and
2: The David James & Robbie Williams incident at the Q awards a few years ago,

....perhaps Coppell quit because of a something he couldn't swallow

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Coppell is a very very odd Man.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Also it must be peak season in Bangkok in the girly bars.

How many jobs is this that Coppout has now resigned from? Jesus, if ever a bloke wasn't cut out for a pressured role it's him. I would politely suggest window cleaning or delivering newspapers as positions he could maybe hold his nerve in.

Your world is so black and white.

 

[Jookbeard Eagle]

sad, Sir Steve is a giant among men

 

[KNC]

Technically brilliant, but with absolutely no interest (or ability) in boardroom politics. The problem being, the bigger the club, the bigger the politics. IMHO he'd be a brilliant No. 2 for a top club or national setup where he's shielded from having to explain himself.

That's the strange thing for me though. When he does explain himself, he is so eloquent. His interviews were always different to the usual cliched ridden garbage that most managers spout.
Gus, of course, is FLAIR in interviews.

 

[New Carpet?]

Does anyone else think he might be ill perhaps?


Would explain a lot, wouldn't it?

 

[severnside gull]

would make a great addition to a club's boardroom one day

Without being pushed or to go to another job? Two. Hardly makes him a serial bottler IMHO. What's your problem with him? Did he drop St Michel or something? He did a decent job for us and seems like a good bloke, never mind his previous Palacr history.

Incidentally, what does it mean that he's retiring from management but still wants to be involved in football? How does that work??

Great manager always seemed to do well where ever he went (with a couple of exceptions ) can't all be good in Bristol . So here's my tribute
P A L, A C E,
Stevie Coppell's got VD,
With a nick, knack, paddywhack,
Give a dog a bone,
...Crystal Palace f*** off home...:albion1:
