    We all know about famous modern managers refusing to speak to television stations because of perceived wrongs in their coverage - but what about Stockport boss Jim Gannon? He, reportedly, is not cooperating with Sky before the club's play-off League Two play-off final against Rochdale because of a nine-month customer relations dispute over his defective Sky box. (Daily Mail)

    Thought that was hilarious to be honest :D

    Fair play to him, a man of principle! If only I could have the profile to make a public statement as such about UK Banks, which wont fricking accept a Sky TV bill, or a mobile phone bill as proof of address.....move with the times people!

    yes. it took them ages to install his new dish when he moved to Pompey, so he refused to talk to them until it was done IIRC.

    I'll admit that it does look bad... I had originally just got "what a legend".. In reference to letting a domestic problem interfere with work. Then i thought i'd point out that he was a former Dundalk manager. I should have also added, "but he's still a cnut".
    My bad...

    Okay , I feel so much better now that we both agree that you don't talk shít and that Jim Gannon is a cúnt. All is good with the world.
    Oh and your back on my list now.
