Sorry I don't have a vid for this, but in the post match on Sky he was asked if he asked his players to "get stuck into Charlton early on". Fans of lie to me would (like me) have been reaching for the freeze frame.
Uncomfortable look.
Pursed lips.
Look away
Close Eyes.
Think about answer.

He definitely did, despite the fibs that came out of his mouth. I doubt he wanted one of his crew to potentially end a young players career, but I'm fairly sure that he encouraged a feisty start against us (we're a team that gets easily knocked off our stride early on).

every manager will say the same before any game (or at least should), on a sunday morning we are told to 'get stuck in early doors' and 'let them know you are there'...doesn't mean to say break his leg and I'm sure he didn't mean for that to happen, but nothing wrong with a few early 'robust' challanges.....just that the Rovers guy went way over the top and should've been sent off for it.
