I am told that young Harry Forrester caused a disruption in the Sevco force field that was felt in a galaxy far far away.
The words that the ex-Doncaster Rovers chap had to say about the Poundshop Mourinho were seriously off message.
So much so that a high-Level chap was dispatched to remonstrate with a sports editor in England.
Alas, the PR plenipotentiary met with little Progrès.
Advantage Forrester…
Senhor Pedro Miguel Faria Caixinha was also the subject of an off-site discussion recently between the Serious Professional and the moderator of the Quintessentially British WhatsApp group.
The conclave was at the request of the latter.
If I can give a précis of the discussion it would be that the WhatsApp chap intimated to the Serious Professional that he didn’t think that he could keep a lid on his frustrations for much longer.
To say that he is unimpressed with Senhor Pedro Miguel Faria Caixinha would be to commit the crime of understatement.
He outlined for the Serious Professional the outdated and rudimentary nature of the team training under Pedro.
The moderator also opined that if the Admirable Warburton had been given this level of financial support from the Sevco High Command then the team would be in much better shape.
Ah yes, shape…
To underline his point about the dubious abilities of the current manager the WhatsApp chap asked the Serious Professional to ask Pedro about the last match.
Precisely to ascertain from the likable Portuguese what formation the team was in at the end of the match against Ross County.
The punch line was that the players themselves had altered the formation to see out the match and that Pedro hadn’t even noticed!
Of course, there is an alternative explanation.
It could be that Senhor Pedro Miguel Faria Caixinha used his special powers to telepathically communicate his tactical instructions to several players on the field without them even realising it!
Now, dear reader, for the avoidance of doubt, I cannot state if tactics were changed in the Ross County or by what method.
What I can say is that the conversation took place and this question was posed to the Serious Professional by Mr Moderator.
The conclave concluded with the club administrator telling the player that, yes, he felt his pain, but that there was little he, or anyone at the club, could do at the moment.
Just like Jamie Walker Pedro isn’t going anywhere for the foreseeable….
Nota bene
I’m looking forward to meeting up with the Huddle Up Errigal crew tonight at the Gweedore Bar down the road in An Fál Carrach.
So, if you’re lucky enough to be in Cloich Cheann Fhaola anocht then dander along.
We kick off at 6.00pm.
I’m doing a question and answer session for them.
€5 on the door with proceeds going to worthy causes.

Classic reporting by the Daily Radar Phil…

Get on this before they pull it Bayern Munich will be surprised to learn they share a Group with PSG MAN CITY and CELTIC
Sorry missed Errigal event and Q&A, had family event in south brittin, ha ha,
Yet more pish from the Daily Mail on Rangers last minute move to snatch £45k per week Ross McCormack before the window shut but couldn’t agree with Villa how much of his wages tab they would pick up.
According to the Mail he would single handedly blow Celtic away!
And with no further European football on the horizon for the Ibrox club till next season, at the earliest, a glamour friendly is being arranged with Benfica in Canada come the next international break.
Given that Benfica’s best players will be representing their national teams that weekend the fixture becomes Rangers v Benfica reserves.
The Rangord made such a song and dance about the 2angers Development Squad not entering this years Development League in order to play a series of “Glamour” ties instead against Europes best youth sides!
Citing this as some sort of eureka moment and a revolutionary new approach by the Ayebroke Giants whilst simultaneously ignoring the fact that Celtics Development Squad have been involved in the Next Gen Series since 2011 and all European spin offs since up to and including this years ties against PSG BAYERN and ANDERLECHT in the UEFA Youth League.
Riddy.
Seen your present from the main man, nice touch and nice wee memento to keep. Sometimes the simplest things just oozes class you cannot buy.
Site is running superbly Phil quick and slick.
On yer comment yesterday about the sense of entitlement carrying on over from extinct Rangers I wholeheartedly agree though it has to be said the Club might be gone but the stench still lingers within its followers.
Megalomania killed Rangers no doubt it will kill The International Fc too.
It would be funny if it wasnt so tragic that the Rangers fans can’t bring themselves to mention their new Welsh loanee’s forename who will forever will just be known as John.
Magic ! You’ve created a wee bit of a conundrum for me here Phil regarding the abilities of the likeable soccer Meister of those who worship at the trough of Belzebub .
So far we have,”Pedro the Matador, Pedro the painter, Pedro the Porsche driver, Pedro the Caravanner , Pedro the Football Manager ( allegedly), and now Pedro the Telepathist.(the Great Pedrando ???).
Now , how do we finish this? Heh heh
P.S.
Forgot to add a very important line Phil. After the Great Pedrando , ” Do they call me any of these things? NO SENHOR! “
The great Pedrano……. vanishing act.
A fine wee bar Phil,and John cannon is a gent,I normally have a drink in the shamrock a few doors down,pity I’m not over ,it would be a privilege to stand you a few jars .
I have family from falcarragh,have a great night with the blackjacks??
Cheers Denis
New site looking and reading great. You’re best line yet for me was in the previous article… Whereby you refused to reveal the player who was subject of an enquiry from Notts Forest!!! ???
