Phil Gould Meeting

Hey people's...

 

I had a great chat with Phil Gould tonite (wed), he and his family were flying out for holidays.

Those who don't know, i work at International Airport, which is why i got to chat to him.

 

Hard man to get talking i must say... When he did relax with me, he answered a few of my questions.

 

Parra did make him an offer to coach 2011 and beyond, also offered him a overseeing role, he declined both as wouldn't be right for him???

 

He said he is going to help the Cowboys, its only for 2wks though. Just to have a look and lend a hand to Neil Henry, apparantly their board is worse than ours???

 

I said the Cowboys are about to fall in a heap with this betting scandal, he said "oh yeah", "big time"... I said to him i have seen the list of names being investigated and was surprised, he said he wasn't and no-one else is either??

 

Proof is going to be hard though...

 

Thats about it... Oh and his son is a dead set ranger too....

 

Just off this, also got to meet Daniel McPherson (the actor), had to pat him down, really top bloke hey, said he was off to Hawaii to do an audition for a new T.V show there...

  • Mate hasnt Gus got the ruddiest compexion ever ? When I was talking to him i thought he was going to have a heart attack !
    He must use a ton of make up on the telly.
  • Yeah, as i said he was hard to get talking, eventually he opened up. Has a cold manor though...
  • Great scoop. 

    Gus is cold because he knows a lot. He is a master coach himself an people scrutinise his opinions. For example, I think he has single handedly ruined our refs. But thats why we love him and its why he comes across cold.

  • He's probably cold because of the fear that any remarks he might make to the fans might wind up on an internet forum like this and potentially land him in hot water.

    No offence Bert but if the Cowboys are guilty of a betting scandal and Gus knows about it via his connections do you honestly think he'd appreciate your publicising it in the public domain??
