Nice little schooling for the Turkish maestro before returning to Lancashire to take the helm of his spiritual abode.

Would be a tough decision for him to leave Gala if at some stage Rovers were to offer him an assistant manager / manager role.

Imagine Tugay at the touchline, cigarette in hand, expensive designer suit and ponytail. He'd have to be pretty damn bad for the Ewood faithful to turn on him!
