He's got a good record as a manager though, fair play.

Just picked up on the fact he is manager of Cultural Leonesa... hmm, could be some truth in this.

Or it could be a load of old bull cooked up by bored journos putting uno y uno together to come up with dos/toss.

We had two players on loan with them last season, right ?
So that's the starting point right there.

This is on a par with Hockaday for me.
At least there was some logic with Heck : young, English, same div, Yorkshireman.

This guy .. Spanish, 33 .. er .. and ??
If he was Italian and AR knew him from the lower leagues in his own country then I might believe it, but the only thing I can think of is that Orta met with the guy before sanctioning those loans for Bouy and Ideguchi and was impressed, but it's a hell of a leap, isn't it ?

If that is the truth, by the way, it'll be interesting to see the fan reaction given that most of us actually dislike Heck marginally less than we do Orta :wtf:

You could well be right, Rigz but nothing surprises me in football anymore.
