WATCH: Paul Sturrock’s honest pre-game interview is the stuff of f**king legend

Like a chat down the pub

No, this isn’t a soused fan giving his well-oiled thoughts on an upcoming cup tie.

It’s, in fact, Yeovil Town manager Paul Sturrock giving one of our favourite interviews of all time.

The Scot was asked his thoughts on his current injury crisis ahead of Yeovil’s trip to non-league Maidstone United for their FA Cup first round tie on Sunday.

Sturrock didn’t censor himself as he replied to a question about a potential replay.

“We’ll just have to fucking get on with it, won’t we?” Sturrock answered.

“Sokolik and Smith, if they don’t make it then we are fucked.”

If Chelsea do happen to sack Jose Mourinho this weekend then we’ll probably have to write a letter to Roman Abramovich begging him to give Sturrock a chance because we simply need to see this man week-in, week-out.
