I remember Ron Atkinson saying “look at this lad here , he gets the ball and sold him a lollipop “”

after someone did a step over trick/skill 

clough and Atkinson alone could have a 200 page book out with there quotes. All brilliant ?

Cant remember who it was, possibly michael owen when co-commentating was saying how one team needed to put pressure on the other and "force them to make those unforced errors"

A lower league Scottish manager (Jim Lambie I think) had a reputation for quick wit. One of his players had gone down with a head injury and was brought off for treatment near the technical area. The manager asked the physio how he was and was told he didn't really know who he was. Quick as a flash he shouted "tell him he's Pele then and throw him back on".

Gordon Lee when he was at Everton took them for pre-season training in Tunisia or Morocco. A Brit journo asked him what it was like doing the pre-season in Africa and he replied "Bloody hell, we're not in Africa are we?"

One of my all time favourites from Bill Shankly:

“Of course I didn’t take my wife to see Rochdale as an anniversary present. It was her birthday. Would I have got married in the football season? Anyway, it was Rochdale reserves.”

Keegan 'I'd love to be a mole on the wall of that dressing room'

And did anyone hear Bumble during the first test say 'the umpire has got his ring piece out' when checking the roundness of the ball?

Strachan again re Wayne Rooney's England call up at 17

"it's an incredible rise to stardom, at 17 your more likely to get a call from Michael Jackson than Sven Goran Eriksson"

Another Strachan one:

Reporter: “Where do you think you lost that game today Gordon?”

Strachan: “See that big green rectangular thing out there?”.....

ian holloway on qpr performance

 

“To put it in gentleman’s terms if you’ve been out for a night and you’re looking for a young lady and you pull one, some weeks they’re good looking and some weeks they’re not the best. Our performance today would have been not the best looking bird but at least we got her in the taxi. She weren’t the best looking lady we ended up taking home but she was very pleasant and very nice, so thanks very much, let’s have a coffee” – on the “ugly” win against Chesterfield
