Then why has DOG been quoted today as asking Leicester fans to forget that he left us to join Hull, and to get behind him. Very odd comment for anyone to make if they had been pushed out.

It is pretty obvious that MOF and Hoos pushed Pearson out.

I've heard that the man who took us to the 1969 FA Cup Final and then led us back to the First division a couple of years later is at the club on Sunday, plugging his new autobiography.

Yes apparently the legend that is Frank O'Farrell, is doing a signing session before the match.

I'll be honest until I read in the papers recently about his book, I thought he was no longer with us. Fortunately I'm wrong.

Welcome back Frank, I'm looking forward to meeting you and discussing how we were robbed in 1971 in our FA Cup quarter final replay at Arsenal. I had the day off school, sick (?) to go to the replay, and when I went back to school the following day after that match I really felt sick, we were robbed, anyone else there that night ?

Rodney Fern scored but it was never given, one of the worse decisions I've ever seen, or maybe it was because I was so young at the time, and looked at the match through rose tinted glasses.

I've been round his house a few times. Lives over my way. My old boss' sister in laws dad!

Sorry, thats the only input I can make on this

Perhaps he doesn't want to live in the past, look forward and all that?

Not rocket science is it DT? :thumbup:

What does DOG mean?

DT had a moment of 'hilarity' when he inverted the word 'GOD' (as in 'Pearson is GOD - see Thracian) to the word 'DOG', thus illustrating his own feelings on the man.

Genius. :unsure:

I've already read the book, it certainly gives you a great insight into the club in the late sixties early seventies.. One thing I didn't realise was that the Kray twins were in Leicester prison at the time and also what a miserable so and so Allan Clarke was.. .

I remember this chant so fondly

Cheer Up, Mark McGhee

Oh What Can It Mean

To A Fat Scottish B*****d

And A, Shit Football Team.

If my memory serves me rightly I think we were singing this after the classic play off win against Palace

'we are the champions' was played out over the speakers and then we got stuck into McGhee..

I got to meet the legend that is Frank O'Farrell before the game on Sunday. What a lovely bloke.

I wouldn't mind another signed copy. Does anyone know has the club shop got any left ? I've tried to get through a couple of times on the phone this morning to ask and it's been engaged?

Posted

There were a few signed copies still at the shop last night. I know because I bought one!

Cracking read, though it paints a less than flattering picture of Matt Busby and Manyoo. Maybe that explains why the book isn't on sale through Amazon.

But O'Farrell is still apparently a hero in Iran, whom he managed to an Asian title.
