Saw this tremendous post on Outlaws about Kinnear’s time at the club and wasn’t suprised to learn Springy’s thoughts on BFJ’s finest signing, Jean Louis Valois…
My youngest lad plays football with Matt Spring’s son, so chatted to MS on the sidelines quite a bit on Saturday mornings.
He has said how mad JK was. After one pre-season training session, JK was going ballistic at all the players for lack of skill and effort. He said he was going to bring a load of new players in.
On the Monday, JLV turned up at training. All the players were open mouthed how good he was, but were convinced that JK had bought him in for the day to show the rest of the players up. Apparently, that was the sort of thing Kinnear did. When the players found out JLV had actually signed, tge boost it gave all the players, was huge, and obviously reflected on the pitch.
To this day, Spring, who played in the premiership, reckons JLV is the best player, he ever played with.
Inspired management or what?
