| What Darren Anderton said about ... |

... the use of faith healer
Eileen Drewery by Glenn Hoddle ... 20.10.2007 (Daily
Mirror)
"People used Eileen as a stick to beat him with, which was unfair on her because she didn't do anybody any harm and helped me. She's one of the reasons I'm still going. My hamstring turned to rock after the first day of pre-season training at Tottenham, and I knew I was struggling. Glenn read about it on holiday, rang me up from his sun lounger and gave me the phone number of a lady who might be able to help." |

... about Glenn Hoddle as
England manager ... 20.10.2007 (Daily Mirror)
"Glenn had his detractors towards the end, but tactically he was spot-on. In terms of keeping the ball, creating chances and outplay gifted opponents like Argentina, he was a fantastic coach. It was an enjoyable team to play in, enjoyable to watch and I wouldn't be surprised if Glenn got the job again one day. He was innovative and having played under him for Tottenham and England, I would say he was better suited to international football than club management." |

... the "Sicknote" nickname ...
20.10.2007 (Daily Mirror)
"You would sign an autograph for somebody, they would say 'Thanks Sicknote" and I would just think 'What a nugget.' but I know how many games I have played and you have to laugh about it." |

... the winning goal in his last
game for Bournemouth ... 18.01.2009 (THFC programme)
"For me to finish with the winning goal was brilliant. To go out with a bang is a great feeling and it's nice that that will be the last thing that people see." |
