The response from the board members, the staff, and the players and, from what I can gather, the supporters has been fantastic.

This is what we were aiming for.

Forest got rid of Teddy after only a year with him scoring 20-odd goals,

I am disappointed for him. He is a smashing young lad, with a great future ahead of him. But he is of an age where he will get over it and come back stronger.

When I look back now I wouldn’t say that I cringe, but I start to realise how naive I was then. I feel much better suited to the job now.

No, we won’t increase it. The club has made Joey a fantastic offer, but his agent has said it wasn’t about money, so I need to talk to him and found out what the situation...

I just get the impression that everyone is willing me to succeed.

We have disappointment in our camp. United didn’t create too many clear cut chances and their goalkeeper made a world class save to keep Cole out.

In an ideal world, we will still qualify for Europe.

I would prefer the money to go to the next manager. The club got me for nothing so I think I should be allowed to leave for nothing.

England is not a distraction for me, I don’t take a great deal of interest in it. The only time England gets mentioned is when I walk into a press conference and get asked the...

We looked like the team who were up for a derby, the ones who had turned up for a scrap. The players fought for everything and they deserved everything they got. We didn’t go into...

I have made it totally clear to the players that my door will always be open.

United won’t have as few chances on goal all season. We had as many efforts as them.

We wish him well for the future and thank him for his efforts.

We are planning for next season as to what we want – and who is available – we are doing our best to get players lined up.

It would be nice to have it resolved, probably at least a month before the tournament, so that everyone is aware who the new man is and when he’ll take over. Otherwise the speculation could...

If we inundate the courts with these charges, I’m hoping sooner or later that somebody’s going to strike down that fact, that we’re not born poachers.

He’s keen to show what he can do, he’s done enough to suggest it will be well worth having a look at him,

I wouldn’t suspect he will get any England call and I don’t think Andy suspects it either,

It looks as though we will do well to get him back before the end of the season.
