I just read that part of Mick's book last night. Yeah, I think about the time he was ousted as FM manager, that he stopped managing Bob.

And, I can only guess that Bob only semi-retired when the marketplace stopped ringing his phone.
Bob's a GREAT guy. One of these days, I'm gonna offer to take him and his wife out to dinner, when I'm in town. He'll probably say no, but who knows?
I was there last weekend, but...........
