Who would that be, then...?

From the Merc:

"Leicester City have been inundated with enquiries for the vacant manager's post at the Walkers Stadium.

Caretaker-manager and director of football Dave Bassett has revealed that the position has attracted an overwhelming amount of interest following Micky Adams' departure on Monday.

The likes of Gary McAllister, Mike Newell and Steve Cotterill have emerged as the bookmakers' favourites for the job but, while Bassett refused to comment on the speculation, he did reiterate that the board of directors were in no rush to appoint Adams' successor.

He said: "The corpse wasn't even dead and the phone was going!

"A lot of names have come up, some of which have been quite amusing, but at the same time we will assess the situation before drawing up our shortlist."


Mr Fox, have you gone and applied again ???

'The CORPSE wasn't even DEAD and the phone was going.'


What???????

 

[homer]

Apparently the fickle boneheads killed micky adams, and that's why he had to resign

 

[Joe_Fox]

'The CORPSE wasn't even DEAD and the phone was going.'


What???????

I thought that for a moment before understanding that it meant that the phone was ringing really quickly after the news was publicly released.

'The CORPSE wasn't even DEAD and the phone was going.'


What???????

Surely it can't be a corpse until it is dead... maybe he meant to say "The corpse wasn't cold before the phone started ringing"

Oh I dunno :roll:

The corpse was then revived and offered the job as temporary first team coach.

No - that one is definitely still dead

The corpse was then revived and offered the job as temporary first team coach.

Specialising, presumably, in dead ball situations.

Maybe he ment the corpses were dead meaning our defence and that the phones had been going about a year ago.

"The corpse wasn't even dead and the phone was going!

Even Bassett has reservations about the average age of our squad.
