"Before the myth about Arsene 'Wenger' changing British football - there was Pete Edwards. who Introduced modern football fitness, nutrition into English game with Nottingham Forest from 1993. A bigger architect of promotion to third in Premier league than Frank Clark, Stuart Pearce or me.

PROS, use him, he's the Godfather."
