Eric in Today's Independent

Not mincing his words:

Crunch time for the have-nots - Football League, Football - The Independent

Shades of his documentary speak.

Lol, I bet that's the first time Burnley's been described as 'glamorous' in print.

Re: Eric in Today's Independent

And i quote EW...

He cites a variety of "pricks", "*******" and "****houses" who he says have contributed to Accrington's troubles, and uses the f-word so often that when I joke that his complaints would only be half as long if he cut out of the swearing, he deadpans: "That's bloody good, that."

Class

The sad thing is it is just so true its 100% fact and you have to admire is honesty.

interesting that they quote last seasons turnover and profit/loss results. I thought we didn't let on things like that

The last insult I always associate more with Yorkshire, than here in Lancs.

Though I may just be thinking of their ****house and Rastrick Brass Band.

Re: Eric in Today's Independent

Typical EW comment's Direct, Element of the truth, perhaps a bit tongue in cheek, but it got people talking. This guy will only be fully appreciated for his time and money when he as gone. Stick around Eric most of us would miss you, and keep wearing your heart on your sleeve.

Re: Eric in Today's Independent

They reckon that another 5 clubs will go into administration.

I used to work with David Hinchliffe interviewed in this piece and looking after Darlington

The Last Word: 'Five clubs will follow us into administration' - News & Comment, Football - The Independent
