    He loves us!

    Good to hear really. Much better than the Rooney/Birmingham/etc comments.

    It is a nice interview, but I also get the sense of a 20ft snake eagerly eyeing its prey, as is usual when we have to play him.

    Great interview if you're a Reds Fan. I'd be fuming if I was a Boro fan - took until the close to the 7th minute for there to be a question about their club and that lasted all of 90 seconds.

    He also praises us and his time with us away from the fixture time as well .
    In fact I think we have a few pages in his book if I’m not mistaken , just can’t remember whether I’ve read it or not tbh , such is life in old age .

    He's just trying to take any pressure off his own players. Worked against Watford.

    Always nice to have some enthusiasm about our club and I 100% agree with him that no teams should have a divine right to go up.

    Anyone else feel a bit embarrassed?

    I felt a bit like I’d taken my newlywed mate for a pint; and five pints in it dawns on me he’s got a crush on my Mrs.

    What a sweet, harmless old man, and what a gushing interview.

    It can't possibly be this same bloke. Beware Warnock! He feels he can win tomorrow!

    Colin looks more like Senator Palpatine every day.

    He highlights something though in his interview which hasn't really been discussed. When we were looking for a new manager, there was a section of our fan base that wanted us to go for someone who 'knew the league'. What Neil eludes to in this interview, is that we're doing so well, because we have a manager who isn't playing the traditional championship way. We haven't conformed to a uniform playing style, or a particular custom. We're doing our own thing, and teams are struggling to work us out.

    Exactly this. The rest of you Muppets have fallen for his BS. DON'T let him blow smoke up your ar*e as easy as that...

    He's said those things to get our boys relaxed and thinking is easy for us tomorrow. I'm just glad VI isn't as gullible as some of you that have posted in this thread.

    Muppets...

    Im expecting Mowatt will be man marked tomorrow, that's what they did to Hughes last week. But im equally sure that VI will be expecting it too.
