"We've got a good team ethic here and the players work very, very hard and that's put on by the superb support staff - Andy Crosby and Dean Wilkins they put great training sessions on and Nick Harvey from a fitness point of view has been outstanding then there's the medical staff with Matt Radcliffe".

Giordano Posted 3 October, 2011 Share Posted 3 October, 2011 It was a very interesting interview and very revealing. As far as I can recall, it was the first time NA has let on that he personally wants to go, "as far as he can" or words to that effect. Now I'm no mystic meg but everything we already knew about him into the pot including the newer stuff about his sporting hero being Botham plus his admiration for Johnny Wilkinson i'm thinking he is something of an english national team patriot type of chap and so "going as far as he can go" can only mean that his dream job would be to manage the National team. I'd place a wager that he would be the next England Manager after they make the mistake of appointing Redknapp or Allardyce to succeed Fabio, probably around 2014-16. Must look if i can get odds.....
