Paul Simpson Quotations

We have just tinkered and added to it as we have gone along. And we are still looking to improve the squad all the time,

I'd like to thank Mark for what he's done in his time here.

He has worked hard but there are other players above him in the pecking order.

He is a player with genuine pace, and can also use the ball. We think this will be a good move for both him and us - we're delighted to take him on board.

Historically, there has always been a lot of people in Champaign-Urbana that have the wherewithal to travel and experience food and wine from all over the United States and all over the world. There is a worldly, eclectic view when it comes to food and wine in this community.

We have had an enquiry from Livingston but it isn't enough of an enquiry for us to allow Derek to go.

We are really pleased with the players we have got in the squad and with just a couple more additions we feel we can keep on going upwards.

We are not in a position where we have to let players go and we have let Livingston know that.

There has been no contact about any of our players at all.

When you play a team so often in quick succession, you learn a lot about each other. But all the games are completely different and we will approach them all properly.

But not all of them do business in Bloomington-Normal or in Springfield or in Peoria.

We just need to get through this week and then look to bring in loan players. Right-back is certainly an area we'll be looking at.

Competing at this level is an honour. The skills we practice for these events are those we use in daily emergency responses.

That's gone now. It's not been mentioned since Wednesday.

Football management is a tough job and I was fortunate that they did not panic when we got relegated and look to blame me. They thought we were doing the right things,

It was a good thing we dropped out of the League. It gave us the opportunity to address a lot of things that were wrong. The squad wasn't good enough for this level. We have a squad now where they are all of our choosing. We're back stronger than we ever have been.

There was an old saying that 95 percent of all wine sold is in the Chicago metro area, with 5 percent of that outside Chicago well, 3 percent of that is Champaign-Urbana. The strongest wine market outside Chicago is Champaign-Urbana.

If the pitch is like it was the last time we played there, I will voice my concerns and I will be stronger in my opinions.

I only hit him twice. The rest has been done by him falling around the cell.

I'll get over this as long as we have another party this season and give our superb support something to cheer by winning promotion.

It has surprised even me that it has turned around so quickly. We are going to Cardiff for a cup final which has been a real bonus to us. To go there in the knowledge that, whatever happens this weekend, we will still be three points clear on Monday morning is a lovely position to be in.

He's a pretty boy. The guy is like the Puff Daddy of the gym.
