“Danny Thompson calls from backstage at the Corn Exchange in Cambridge. He's still playing with Gomez there. He's just spoken to his pal Mick Wadsworth and had to tell me about it. Mick is currently Manager of Oldham Athletic in division 2, having had a busy year. He was assistant to Bobby Robson at
Newcastle a year ago and left to be assistant at Southampton. A job he was fired from after a matter of months."
"Anyway he signed a striker from Watford when he first arrived at the northern club. That Striker was then arrested for violent conduct in some hotel within a week of him getting here. He was arrested again a couple of nights ago. Mick will not tolerate this and intends to fire him."
"A fact the striker is not yet aware of, not unless he reads this diary (diary witheld) that is, which strikes me as very unlikely. Danny called me on his mobile whilst on stage at the festival hall last year.”
