Whats embarrassing is that Radford has allowed his ego to dictate the interview

Actually that's not true at all. While I don't agree with his comments they were a very small part of an interview that was all about the players and the travelling fans, not about Radford. His passion certainly shone through.

If you listen to what he said his emphasis isn't about himself. It's defending the team's work ethic against recent criticism, saying he's pleased for the chairman and those fans who did a 220 mile round trip after a really disappointing Derby defeat at home. I didn't get the impression it was all about him. Just my take on it.

IMO radford has a lot of faults, but I agree with your take on this and what I thought was that, despite these issues he may have (and public speaking is one!) he really did care. That meant something to me, he could not hide his emotion.

i like Radford more after hearing the interview. Two threads now running about what he said is a little OTT. Some very sensitive souls about.

I think he meant the sort of "supporter" who who hides behind a keyboard and labels him "a turd" on internet message boards.

That's how I read it.

Personally I just hope that he doesn't think that one result (great result though it was) suddenly proves him right and the doubters wrong. As I said yesterday, this win should be used as a catalyst to push on and not as justification to say that we have already done so. One swallow doesn't make a summer and all that.
