John Hartson

Let us hope that the cancer which was diagnosed last week is only a temporary check to the career of a man equipped for a great managerial career. It was clear during his playing days that he was more intelligent than your average target man, and was capable then, as now, of giving a good reading of a game in both English and Welsh.

He may have upset a few Jacks with his expressed desire to manage Swansea, but surely the opportunity is there to take some Football League side into the Premier League and keep it there. After that, who knows? John Toshack can't go on for ever.
