Is This Glass Half
Full?
Norfolk manager, Nicholas Millar has been
quick to respond to Mr Howard's scathing attack in the press.
"Mr
Howard is to management what King Herod was to the Bethlehem Playgroup
Association. His mental approach to it could be visualised as a sort of
business flowchart with, at the top, a circle entitled "Me, who does the
telling" and, connected below it by a line, a large circle entitled
"Everyone else". His recent sexual innuendos in the press aren't doing
anyone any favours."
When asked how the animosity between the two
sides has developed, Nicholas Millar has this to say:
"It was so
much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that
They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was
us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've
certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of
themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the
bad things."
We also asked for some comments from Mr Millar on the
present league situation. We later wished we hadn't
bothered.
"There are, it has been said, two types of people in the
world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly
half full, say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say:
this glass is half empty. The world belongs, however, to those who can
look at the glass and say: What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse
me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a
bigger glass!"
