Guest Tipper Round 1 - General Malaise

All quotations are from Sun Tzu's 'Art of War' - and here are General Malaise's answers:

"If he is taking his ease, give him no rest" - Hardwick telling his tagger how to tag Judd.
"Appear where you are not expected" - Ross Lyon talking about recent police enquiries about some of his players
"Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness.  Thereby you can be the director of the opponent's fate".  Malty to Bucky.
"Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness".  Craigy talking about Clarkson
"If his forces are united, separate them".  Harvey confessing that he took Fev out on new years eve
"If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him".  Hird making sure his play on BigBarry knows what to do.
"Attack him where he is unprepared". New coach Longmire trying to sound like he knows what he's doing.
"Pretend to be weak that he may grow arrogant".  Last years wooden spoon coach Worsfold giving his charges a gee up for the first match of 2011.
