I wouldn’t want to kiss any of ‘em!
But if it hasn’t already occurred, I’d suggest one way to calm things down is for Jimmy Bell to order a portion of humble pie and clarify, to AH directly, that his ‘staged’ interview with the BBC was not intended to imply criticism of the latter.
What particularly jarred with me was when JB said how gutted he and JC were to ‘have to leave’ Stanley in early 2012. Presume he means leave them in the lurch as it was mid season and both of them jumped ship to Rochdale because it suited them and their careers at the time.
Just out of interest, here’s a list of managers were then available to replace Coleman and Bell in 2012. Does JB think it would be any different today?
