Aldershot’s manager gave the greatest and weirdest pre-match interview of all time

The manager of Aldershot Town FC, Mark Molesley, gave an interview ahead of his team’s FA Trophy match against Bromley. The interviewer asked a standard question.

“Mark – FA trophy tie against Bromley this weekend. What are your thoughts?”

The answer was anything but standard.

If a tree falls and no-one is there to hear it fall, does it make a noise?

Does a penguin get cold?

What way does your bathwater go – clockwise or anticlockwise when you take the plug out?

Eric Cantona could probably answer those questions, plus the big one – ‘Why did he say that?‘, but we’re not sure anyone else could.

The Dorset Echo’s Sports Correspondent, Neil Walton – who has undoubtedly seen thousands of manager interviews – might be onto something with this theory.

If so, it didn’t quite have the desired effect. Aldershot lost 2 – 0.
