Delighted to see Blakey in good form, doing well and still looking out for us. Quite enjoyed watching City when he was here, even if it wasn't one of our most successful periods, and think it was because he was a good bloke with a bit of the Stuart Pearce in him.

Enjoyed? Hooooooooooooooooooooooof ain't my thing, sorry.

God I'm getting tired of the Echo's style of repeating an interview virtually verbatim.

Blake has found managing an England age level side a completely different kettle of fish to trying to keep Exeter City in the Football League

Then later

"It is totally different to life with City in every way shape and form. It's about working to the best of your talents for your nation.

"It's a different type of challenge to a full season"

Or

Blake looks back fondly on his time at St James's Park and still looks out for their results every weekend.

"I still look out for City's results because I have still got good friends down there.

The Tisdale article is littered with the same trait too, it's just tiring tbh.

They are good people and I know Paul Tisdale as we are doing our UEFA Pro Licence together at the moment

There's the England management duo for the 2022 World Cup in Australia.

Noel Blake alongside Steve Flack is the worse footballer ive seen as a City fan , oh and his teams played long ball crap football.

good luck youngsters.

Blakey was a very good defender in his day and decent when he first played for us, unfortunately his legs went.

Yep, the quality of the football was pretty poor and there were plenty of rubbish players, but it was the back to the wall spirit that I liked. You know, we're crap but at least we're fighting, that kind of football fan masochist thing.

Much prefer the football we play today, and suspect Blakey moved on from the hoof ball days as well.

And a top-class bus inspector....

I'de go with that. Saw him when he was at Portsmouth and he was a truly outstanding centre half. At that time I.M.O wouldn't have disgraced the England shirt.
