Trying to recall a interview Arjan de Zeeuw, ex Wigan gave a few years back regarding is introduction to english football and differences to the dutch way.He was having a chat with his then Barnsley manager, Danny Wilson. Being dutch, players were encouraged to put forward any thoughts they might have with regards to tactics, formation etc. & after a dip in performances Arjan, with support from his new teamates decided to put forward his thoughts to " the gaffer". Knocking on Mr. Wilsons door and entering, Mr. Wilson, without looking up says "yes, what is it?". Arjan then starts to enlighten Wilson on "the dutch way" , he's then cut short by Wilson who asks him if he can read to which Argan replies "yes". Wilson then asks him what it says on the door. "Manager", replies Argan. "Correct", says Wilson, "now feck off!"
