Some good advice for the tough times

AT CHESTERFIELD, we badly need wins, and while we’re in this period I’m just trying to keep in mind what I tell my former players who call me from time to time when they’re going through a difficult spell. Look after yourself first. Stay away from alcohol. Do your exercise and keep fit. Listen to staff and no one else. Stay away from fans forums and all media. You can listen to too many people, lose the sense of what it is that makes you who you are and what made you successful in the first place.
