‘He's seen enough' – Ex-Man Utd star walks off set after disastrous League One clash as fans think he'll resign
MAN ALIVE 'He's seen enough' – Ex-Man Utd star walks off set after disastrous League One clash as fans think he'll resign PLYMOUTH ARGYLE manager Tom Cleverley walked off set as technical issues delayed his post-match interview last night. The Pilgrims fell 1-0 to Leyton Orient at Home Park, Cleverley's fourth League One defeat out of four since taking charge. 8 Tom Cleverley waited on set to be interviewed 8 The Plymouth Argyle manager eventually had enough of waiting Credit: X Advertisement 8 Josh Koroma fired Leyton Orient to victory Credit: Shutterstock Editorial Argyle have endured a disastrous summer, with former manager Miron Muslic walking out to join Schalke and several key players leaving. Last night's match was broadcast on the club's internal Argyle TV service. Shortly after the final whistle, Cleverley headed to the studio to perform his post-match interview. Advertisement As the former Manchester United star stood wearing a microphone, media staff tried to fix some technical issues. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL SPLASH THE REDDIES Liverpool approve record Isak transfer as Reds plot £165m double-deal When the presenter, presumably not realising he was on air, answered his phone, an agitated-looking Cleverley looked like he wanted to leave the studio. And after about 90 seconds of standing there waiting, the 36-year-old eventually did just that, removing his microphone and walking off set. Around 30 seconds later the feed cut to black. Advertisement Posting a clip of the exchange, an Argyle fan wrote: "I've just been sent this by a mate. And I'm not going to lie, it completely epitomises everything that's wrong with the club. Unprofessional and amateur. Look at Clevs face, the blokes obviously done. He's seen enough of this s***show, I'm putting money on him walking."

Tom Cleverley reveals message from Wayne Rooney after former Man Utd star named new Plymouth manager Cleverley has been working with a threadbare squad at Home Park. The Pilgrims lost the likes of Ryan Hardie, Adam Randell, Maksym Talavierov, Nikola Katic. Mustapha Bundu, Jordan Houghton, Rami Al Hajj and Darko Gyabi from their side that nearly survived in the Championship last term. Argyle signed several players early on in the transfer window, but few with League One experience. Cleverley was finally able to bolster his leaky defence by bringing in Alex Mitchell on loan from Charlton on Monday. Advertisement That was Argyle's first acquisition of a player, excluding those previously on trial, since July 4. The club's No9 shirt has still not been filled, despite fan favourite Hardie leaving for Wrexham on June 16. Luca Ashby-Hammond has been filling in for injured first choice Conor Hazard in goal, having scored a comical own goal while on trial with the Greens. The Pilgrims began their season with a 3-1 home defeat by Barnsley and a 2-0 loss at Bolton. There was brief respite in the Carabao Cup, as Argyle beat a heavily rotated QPR side 3-2 at Home Park - but it was normal service resumed on Saturday as they lost 3-2 at Lincoln.

The former Watford boss did not shy away from the dire situation, saying: "Absolutely, I take full responsibility of that. Advertisement "We all know that we're trying to complete our squad from now to the first of September, and in that period of time it's my job to pick as many points up as possible, and we've not. "Of course we should be doing better. We shoulder that responsibility, but today was one of those nights where I have to say we've done everything we can. "We've just fallen short of a team that right now is a better level than us."

Inside Andy Murray's life after retirement with new jobs, potato gig and fresh addition to family with wife Kim
HAVING won three Grand Slams, £48million in career prize money and undergoing hip surgery, Andy Murray would be forgiven for wanting to put his feet up in retirement. But instead the tennis icon has been coaching, venturing into business and welcoming a new member of the family with his wife Kim. 4 Andy Murray has struck a deal with a potato brand 4 He has welcomed a new dog to the family Credit: andymurray/Instagram 4 The tennis icon has taken to the stage for his own live shows Credit: Getty Murray hung up his racket at the Paris Olympics last summer in an emotional farewell. It has been just over a year since he last stepped onto a court and he revealed he is not missing playing. Dad-of-four Murray admitted to "feeling guilty" about the time he spent away from his kids as a player. But it did not stop him taking the chance to coach Novak Djokovic for six months before splitting. READ MORE IN TENNIS GO GET EMM Alcaraz makes 600-mile dash to join Emma Raducanu at US Open amid dating rumours Murray told the BBC in June: "I wasn't planning on going into coaching as soon as I finished playing but it was a pretty unique opportunity. "It was a chance to learn from one of the best athletes of all time. "I would do it [coaching] again at some stage. I don't think that will happen immediately," Instead Murray has moved into the business world, becoming a partner of Redrice Ventures where he leads a group of athlete advisers to help find investment opportunities. SUN VEGAS WELCOME OFFER: GET £50 BONUS WHEN YOU JOIN The 38-year-old has pumped cash into Game4Padel, who are the UK's largest operator of padel tennis courts. And he and wife Kim still own the five-star Cromlix Hotel in Scotland. Andy Murray starts new career as agony aunt as he reveals details of 'terrible' first date with wife Kim But in one of his more bizarre business deals, Murray struck an agreement with potato brand Albert Bartlett to promote their products. They are based in Scotland and are a long-term supplier to the Cromlix Hotel. A statement on the partnership said it brings "two Scottish-born British icons with shared community vision and family values [together].' It added that the two-time Wimbledon champion will be "encouraging the nation to enjoy a healthy lifestyle through sport and a balanced diet'. Murray said: "I was lucky during my early playing days to have access to the kit and facilities required to play and develop, and as my career progressed, to have the best diet and training advice available. "I am excited to partner with Albert Bartlett to showcase the importance of a balanced diet and an active lifestyle to communities across the UK. "I hope the project inspires people to play and enjoy sport throughout their lives, at whatever level they are able." Away from business, Murray has welcomed a new member to the family in the shape of a flat-coated retriever dog. It comes after his border terriers Rusty and Maggie May died. And instead of entertaining on the tennis court, Murray has gone on tour with his own live show. And he is now focusing on golf, recently playing with Carlos Alcaraz while he was at Wimbledon.

Oliver Brown: Alexander Isak's meltdown is the desperate act of an ingrate
Now that Alexander Isak is at the Instagram-meltdown stage of his summer-long tantrum, you might expect him to come to the table with a few facts. Instead, his attempt at soliciting sympathy for weeks of childish flouncing amounts to nothing more than an unsubstantiated claim that 'promises have been broken'. Newcastle fans can be forgiven if, after a pattern of behaviour so wretched that he is decried in the stands as 'one greedy b-----d', they struggle to accept his word as gospel. In the end, there is just one concrete piece of evidence illustrating Isak's situation, and that is a six-year contract he is seeking to break after three.
