The Spurs boss is happy with his decision to turn it down. “I didn't feel like a number two,” Jol said. “I'm happy now that he did not convince me. Because maybe when he was trying to convince me, maybe I could have gone. At that time I felt differently. He phoned me and asked me to come over for a chat, it was a long time ago.”

Jol also defended Roy Carroll for not admitting that he ball had crossed the line on Tuesday night, "Can you imagine Carroll would tell everyone it's a goal? It's unimaginable. It's the same with a penalty or foul."
