Eric Steele Released

[seagullsovergrimsby]

New managers very rarely retain the previous man's backroom team and Moyes probably feels he needs to surround himself with his own men that he is used to working with in order to hit the ground running there.

Presumably Mike Phelan is now 8th favourite with the bookies for the Brighton manager's job?

I remember the days when an incoming Brighton manager couldn't bring in their own team but had to get along with Booker and White.

Stainless.

Eric is a diamond and will find work anywhere.

Does anyone remember Eric Steele blowing a pretend trumpet fanfare to the fans behind the goal with his hands every time he approached the goal at the start of the game or when the sides came out from the half time interval

No, but I remember him doing his Groucho impersonation.

Maybe that's what it was I was only 10 at the time, I wouldn't have even known who Groucho was Back then

I remember Eric Steele coming to Manor hall middle school in Southwick as a guest bingo caller on a few occasions, bingo was held once a month on a Friday night in the school (this was about 1979) the bloke was absolutely hilarious
Imagine a pro footballer now turning up on a Friday night calling out 5 & 9 the Brighton line and 2 little ducks quack quack
My how times have changed
