I don't think football management is easy. — © Phil Neville
I don't think football management is easy.
Time management is really personal management, life management. and management of yourself.
Baseball and football are very different games. In a way, both of them are easy. Football is easy if you're crazy as hell. Baseball is easy if you've got patience. They'd both be easier for me if I were a little more crazy - and a little more patient.
The most important aspect of my signing with the WFL was not to demean or undermine the National Football League, but rather to make professional football a form of employment where management recognizes its workers as individuals capable of communicating on an intelligent level.
Many think of management as cutting deals and laying people off and hiring people and buying and selling companies. That's not management, that's deal making. Management is the opportunity to help people become better people. Practiced that way, it's a magnificent profession.
One thing is to know how to do things and another is to make it simple and accessible to others. This is the challenge for the big players when they go into management. To do that, you have to learn and study very hard. I have read football management books, analysed myself and the way other people learn and understand things.
Management brings the best and worst out of me, and I think you have to find a distinction between what is work and what isn't work, because football can take over your life.
I stopped playing football. And life wasn't easy without football.
There are lots of positives to come out of playing all sports, not just football. Team games can offer you different life skills than an individual sport can. Football improves your time management - you have to be places on time and disciplined in terms of training.
I think football management has obviously changed and evolved in terms of practices and methods, but I would say the values we strive to hold are the same as great men like Bill Shankly and Bob Paisley.
We live in a world where the laws are getting so tight that management has changed to micro-management to quantum-management to paralysis.
When I wear the hat of management, it is important that our management behaves and conducts as management accountable to the board.
Management did not emanate from nature. Management is not a tree: it's a television set. Somebody invented it. It doesn't mean it's going to work forever. Management is great. Traditional notions of management are great if you want compliance. But if you want engagement, self-direction works better.
Football management is about managing people.
It's so easy for a kid to join a gang, to do drugs. We should make it that easy to be involved in football and academics.

It's not easy having a good marriage--but I don't want easy. Easy doesn't make you grow. Easy doesn't make you think. I thank God everyday that I am married to a man who makes me think. That's my definition of true love.
