    Did Curbs say if he's still on Gardening Leave ?

    Has to be on false pretences.

    He's been told he's having a chat with an old right winger. Probably thinks it's Shaun Newton.
    It's not often I laugh properly out loud at an internet comment but that one's done me.

    Interesting interview i guess. Bit about his time as west ham manager which i didn't know much about. Was undermined by their board. all to do with the financial crash in 2008 and how he had to try and raise a certain amount of cash in the summer window, he got close but the board started to advertise players behind his back. always thought it was cos he wasn't glamours enough for the west ham fans that he left. 
    I thought that was common knowledge. The owners got burned by the Icelandic banks crashing.
    Indeed.  Curbs left, sued for unfair dismissal, won, but never worked in management again.

    Long time ago now but i thought Curbs was offered the Wolves job when they were in the Championship, but he turned them down.  That may have been the last job he was offered ?

    Wasn’t Shaun Newton thought that the Angloitalian cup was played in Spain?

    He did work at Fulham after that but not for long.

    That will be the Icelandic banks backed by Russian oligarchs.

    Precisely, what a pathetic thing to do.
    Look at me everyone, I just took a photo of my middle finger.
    What an absolute nutter I am.

    It certainly is. I don’t know if he actually still lives there but he is a good fit for the place.

    Indeed, he has Britain's finest making unhealthy comments and these acts  on a fairly regular basis.

    I used to see him regularly. 
    He moved away from Downe some time ago.

    He was offered it in the January of the season they got relegated from the Prem. From what I heard (admittedly on on CL) he would have accepted, but wanted assurances that if they went down he'd be backed to bounce back. They stuck with their offer of contract to end of season and no guarantees of an extension so he walked away.
