Ex-Staff Michael Appleton

[Berliner]

Turned down jobs (often at the last minute) because he had a cushy TV job and gardening leave money from Leicester. Then some poor months in management and his illness and all of a sudden he's taking the Shrewsbury job?

Quite sad, in a way.

That's what happens when you start spending your money on silly things and then have to go through an expensive divorce.

Didn't make enough to start with, just commision from Lloyds and the Marussia deal that got Russia into carbon fibre.

 

[Orkney Islands Yellow]

He's one of the same old names on the managerial merry-go-round these days.

Could replace Mark Hughes at Carlisle, in the conference.

Always makes me think of sausages for some reason.

Salop.

It's the noise my cat makes when she jumps at my face at 3am from the top of my wardrobe and lands on my pillow, causing my missus to immediately leap out of bed, and further causing drama as the cat skiddadles off into the endless void of my hallway.

It's been weeks since I've slept well.

Well shut the pest out of your bedroom.



I'll leave you to decide which one is the pest.

This is indeed my missus' assertion and as such, I'm at fault.

It’s an old term for Shropshire. Some people from Shrewsbury call themselves Salopian’s.

In Salop last week, and I can confirm that the term is held in affectionate regard.

Perhaps I'm affected by the similar French word

Zackly. First time I heard their suporters chanting Salop I wondered who they were shouting it at.
