Doing better than I expected ... ad giving Swans some praise.
The local Cyprus paper certainly concurs. When Toshack took over in December, Pafos were described as a team with 'no start, no middle and no end'.

You can also look at some very successful managers who never played a single professional match in their careers ...

I agree.
Plus big John speaks a lot of sense and has more connections in the modern game than nearly anyone else.
Big John would put some fire in the belly, which frankly i like to see. |  |
