I think you may have undermined your "not dining out on ancient history" point somewhat, and if your stadium was size-appropiate for attendance ours would be twice as big. Lastly, if the greatest English manager in the history of football rocked up at the Riverside and promised you glories beyond imagining with the caveat that he had alcohol abuse and self-aggrandisement issues, you'd rip his arm off.
