iaing Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Whilst I am grateful Csaba can speak pretty good english, he cracks me up when he gives his interviews, one part in particular that springs to mind is when he talks about the players in the MIDDLYFIELD. Awesome Csaba as well as changing our team outlook you are raising a few smiles as well. If you don't get MANAGERLY of the month of Novemberly there is something wrong.

Poseidon Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Was wondering what his chances of a Manager of the Month award are. Obviously very good, but Sellic have won all their league games this month.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously very good, but Sellic have won all their league games this month.... he should get the award as he has had to achieve more to go unbeaten all month. would be a sin if tattie heid chesney got it, Csaba deserves to get it.

Jambo83 Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 The thing I have always found amusing is that he translates pretty much every word perfectly but he still uses "mit" instead of "with" ("Mit" is German for "with" just incase some don't have the foggiest what i'm on about...)

Del1812 Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Given how much he rambles on his grasp on the English language is too good. Sometimes you wish he'd give it the usual foreigner cliche of 'yes, very good, very good'. Got to love the eccentric man though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamboJen Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 k-no-v'l-edge kval-i-tay "I must make a compliment to my team." "The Rangers, he is a good team." "The Kingston is a player who one must make(t) to the opponent." I have no idea what the last sentence means but it sounds about right. I think Csaba's great tbh, who else would be able to speak as much and give as many opinions in a language which isn't their first. The Csaba is a manager who one is a breath of fresh air in Scottish football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, but we didn't go unbeaten all month - we lost to Celtic on the first weekend in November. I think Csaba deserves the award on balance, as it should reflect particularly outstanding results, but Strachan is the only manager who has a 100% record in the month, so it wouldn't be a complete scandal if he won it instead of Csaba.

The Csaba is a manager who one is a breath of fresh air in Scottish football. If they can't find anything decent to bash him with, they'll get personal. It's the way these low rent 'journalists' work. Personally, I'd love to see just one of them even attempt to discuss football (at great length) in anything other than their mother tongue. It's clear that most of them struggle with English. The Csaba rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CF11JamTart Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 In his BBC.co.uk column, Chick Young has a go at Csaba for being verbose. Yes, Chick Young! Oh, the irony! I saw that. I would have pished myself, but then realised that it was Chick Young, so I just simmered and seethed and resented paying my TV license. What an absolute bell-end "Chico" is. He can barely speak english without being a walking, talking cliche... Csaba rambles... granted, but he is being reasonably lucid and coherent in a language that is by no means his first language. I am certainly pleased that both our legs is down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
