    Southgate just comes across as a good, tolerant unifying bloke doesn't he?

    I hope we win and the squad meet Johnson so Stones can do a Mick McCarthy when he was asked to meet Thatcher.

    Refused point blank to meet her. When the rest of team felt pressurised into doing just that.

    Copied
    If ever an example was needed to reflect his values, then it can be little bettered than that on the day of the Scottish Cup Final in 1988. Celtic won 2-1, but to the disgust of many, the unpopular Conservative Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher was in attendance and to present the trophy to the winners. The players were under pressure from the SFA to meet her, but a few didn't. According to fellow Celtic player Andy Walker, Mick McCarthy refused point-blank, as he was from Barnsley and the son of a miner. Shaking hands with her was a no-no for Mick McCarthy.
