Sirrel quickly lets an injured youngster know he is not in for an easy time: "They don't know what a bad ankle is. Jesus, when you can't get the bellbottom trousers on because it's the size of a f****** beach ball, that's a bad ankle."
The undoubted star of the book is Notts County manager Jimmy Sirrel whose coaching methods and personal habits are strictly old school, even licking the tops of ketchup bottles in restaurants.
During a pre­match meal prior to a match at Huddersfield, he horrifies a waitress by licking the neck of a tomato ketchup bottle clean of its sauce — before replacing the top; this idiosyncrasy is repeated in hundreds of eateries up and down the country while the Notts' players muffled their giggles.

 Case for dismissal - [Sunday Herald]
Sirrel’s response was designed to blow the questioner out of his Y-fronts.
The trouble with Sirrel, however, was not the possibility that his reaction to insult was occasionally disprop- ortionate, nor was it the probability that he could rip you to pieces both on and off the pitch.
It was the certainty that he was some way from being the prettiest picture in the art gallery!

 Tims 92- Notts County   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The first thing that comes to mind when thinking about Notts County is that they are Nottingham’s second, and smaller club, and the same goes for their ground, but that would be doing it a disservice as it really is a great ground, and quite big as well, having a capacity of just over 20,000.
Its better than a lot of Championship grounds, even a couple of Premier League ones with two impressive side stands, with a nice, traditional looking gable on top of the Jimmy Sirrel Stand.
The one end, the Kop Stand is huge and about twice the size of the opposite end, the Family Stand, which slightly lets the ground down, especially with a supporting pillar right in the middle of it.

Leaning heavily on stats, it gives details of every Notts County game known to have been played, from the club’s formation in 1862 until the end of the 1994-1995 season.
The written history although competent concentrates mainly on the 1890’s and 1900’s when arguably the club was at its most sucessful, although every era is covered, so famous names such as Jimmy Logan, Albert Iremonger, Tommy Lawtonm, Jimmy Sirrel and Dean Yates are mentioned.
