I know. That's the tragedy where he's concerned.

Albeit he was sacked by Tony Blair live from Richard and Judy's comfy sofa for the crime of expressing views which the Dalai Lama also holds.

He was a football manager. Not Wittgenstein. I thought the furore around it all said much more about what a feral society we are than anything about him. Press hyenas and vultures bringing him down, then picking at a carcass and acting like they were the good guys for doing so.
