Shirtliff in Wednesday Link

Last updated : 23 October 2006 By Editor
I suppose we all thought of it once Paul Sturrock had received the push, but with names such as Nigel Worthington out of a job at the moment, will Sheffield Wednesday really go for Peter Shirtliff to be their new boss ?

Responding to the news that his name has been linked to the postition, Shirtliff told the Mansfield CHAD "It is nice to be mentioned for the Wednesday job – I must be doing something right here if that's the case.

Without doubt though, the person best equipped to handle the pressure of the job, and with Wednesday connections is the one and only (thank god) Carlton Palmer, let's face it, who else knows more about positional play, tactics and did you know he once played for England.

We can't let this story pass without the most famous of Carlton's quotes whilst taking us to the bottom of the table "The team only look good when i'm playing in it!".
