    Thought they used bricks instead of sponges

    ;-)
  • I was at a meeting with a guy a few years ago and mentioned a charlton supporter, he told me to wait and went away, he came back with a stack of managerial refusal letters from loads of clubs, including Charlton (I think after Curbs left) most including Charlton were straight laced, a couple were quite humouress.
  • If/when Millwall reply I will put the application on here. And yes, Nolly would make an excellent sponge man!
  • You can bring your dinner as well, 'cos when they're finished with you, you're gonna need it.
  • Lol john sitton......what a complete nutter!! Sacking a player at halftime too!

    You'll be too busy sorting your squad for next season to be posting it up on here

    If you are applying for fun I think they may well see through it.

    That was probably AFKA's as he applied.

    Couldn't have done worse than Dowie and Reed.

    Got my knock back somewhere too.
  • I apply for every vacancy going. Wrote a letter to Abramovich and done the first line in Russian. I said I only wanted to be manager for a day and then would resign as long as my contract was paid up. I thought if Appleton can do it so can I !!
  • I remember when clubs used to advertise managerial vacancies in the sports pages, I assumed it was a legal obligation.
  • Got a rejection letter today. Sighs.
    This was the application but I have removed the address/name etc:
    Dear Sirs,
    I would like to apply for the Millwall manager vacancy.
    Although my football career was somewhat limited; school team, Moatbridge (briefly), Trogans, Foresters Reserves (captain) and Bretton Hall College I am an avid arm chair scholar of the game and must point out that weedy Arsene Wenger also had a non football career and must have got lucky to end up at the Arse.
    I have not bothered going to the Millwall matches of late because, lets be honest, the football has been crap. The crowd must have some entertainment on the field otherwise they will beat each other up and soon there will be no crowd at all.
    I propose Millwall buy players with proper menace like Fashanu (not the gay one), Hurlock and the late great Barry Kitchener. You need a scouting staff who can really pick a player. My buddy Frank goes to all the home games and is in despair over the recent loan signings. What was Jackett doing hiring that fairy Hulse and don’t get me started on N’Guessian! Frank would be my choice as chief scout but would need one of those scooter things as his knees are knackered. (He says because of too much squash but I reckon too much sex on hard floors).
    At the Charlton game, which I did attend, Kenny Jackett was seen shaking Chris Powell’s hand and later giving him a hug.” Such behaviour is well out of order. The Millwall fans would prefer Powell head butted and garrotted, not smiled at! There should be no patronising with the opposition and especially not the train spotters, Stripey Nigel’s or Wet Scum.
    Players are paid way too much money. I say they should be paid by results. If you don’t win, you don’t get paid. Simples. I would like to employ my current secretary, Gill, who has all the assertive traits necessary to deal with the greedy players who might ask for a pay rise. In our office you dare not ask for an envelope if she is in a bad mood. Mark my words Gill would soon sort out the ever escalating wage bill.
    Finally, as my own football career never took off I would like to have as my assistant John Sitton , a proper football man. No nonsense. John knows how to motivate a team. He would be my right hand, literally in the face of players who don’t get stuck in and perform in the Millwall way.
    I look forward to my interview, where I will reveal my secret tactics.
    Yours Sincerely
