Cookie Coleman is a party animal

Football: Coleman excuse fails to wash | News | Guardian Unlimited Football
Real Sociedad are investigating coach Chris Coleman's late arrival at a press conference, amid reports that he was seen at a local nightclub in the early hours of last Friday morning.

Coleman claimed a faulty washing machine had been the reason for arriving 90 minutes late on Friday only to be forced into a statement on the club's website in which he admitted that it had been an "excuse" after being out the night before until the early hours. "I was in the wrong place at the wrong time," said the former Fulham manager, who has taken the second division club to four wins out of 12.

Right. That's him back to England then.

It is seriously uncool that the club allowed their manager to hang like that. Who cares if he was out late partying or if he was late because of his washing machine? You need to present a united front with your manager--especially if you've won 4 outta 12. Don't force your manager to embarrass himself more. It's just unnecessarily mean and unfair. It probably wouldn't have been that big of a deal if the club didn't make him admit what really happened.

That said, what kind of professional fucks around like that? Also from experience, I know if you're 90 minutes late from being out late and drinking--you can get there on time. It's only when you get to like 3 hours late that you can use partying as an excuse. He's too old to party.
