Further to Thad's link to the Harry Kewell interview, there's an interesting interview with Mark Yates

www.gloucestershirelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/mark-yates-opens-up-gambling-3459753

It's a long article; but there is a section specifically about us towards the end, which makes interesting reading.

(I hope the link is active; if not just copy and past in your address bar)

Good read again a stark contrast to the club’s better state today.

Wonder if that includes a bunch of unconvincing people, pretending to operate as the board...?

I always though MY did a good job....it was widely reported that his budget after relegation was fully taken up with John Gregory's duffers.

No-one else since has really done much better. But I suppose when Eren took over he needed to make a clean sweep.

On the day he was fired we were in 18th place.....so we have improved a massive 1 place since then.

The football wasn't great I agree. But MY did well to stabilise it bearing in mind the squad that he inherited and also that our backers wanted out.

If Eren hadn't come along that season it could have been a lot worse.
