Q: When you arrived at Argyle the team had just lost two games in succession and the Championship title was in doubt, your appointment gave the team added belief. Was that Championship deciding match against QPR your most memorable Argyle match?
BW: It was certainly up there but the following season we had some great games at Home Park, including games against Sunderland, West Ham and others.
Q: Paul Sturrock is regarded as a legend at Argyle; it must have been daunting to follow in his footsteps?
BW: No, not at all, I was confident in my own ability. In Scotland my CV stood up to Paul's but it was much different in England though!
Q: Do you still keep in touch with former colleagues or players at Argyle and have you returned to Home Park for a visit?
BW: No, once you go - you go. I think it's wrong that ex-managers keep in touch with directors and players as it undermines the current manager, even more so if the previous manager was successful!
Q: You signed some good players, including Akos Buzsaky and Mat Doumbe, was there any particular player that you wanted to sign, but for whatever reason the transfer fell through?
BW: What is discussed in the boardroom should stay there; unfortunately that was not the case at Argyle in my tenure! One director in particular was unprofessional by divulging transfer information.
Q: The signing of Taribo West made headline news but his fitness proved to be a problem, were you excited or wary about signing a former World Cup superstar?
BW: Not at all, Taribo was fine until we tried to get him back into the country after pre-season in Sweden. He had to go back to Italy and naturally his fitness lapsed. When he came back he had to go straight back in as Hasney Aljofree was unfit.
It was unfair on Taribo because it was just one day training and then two games in three days. I'm sure if I had stayed he would have done well.
Q: In your first full season as manager you steered Argyle to a respectable 17th place in the Championship, given the spending power of other clubs that was quite an achievement. Were you under instructions to just keep Argyle away from relegation?
BW: I'm not revealing anything that was not already out there, but yes, that was my remit.
Q: Do you feel you were backed fully by the Argyle board of directors?
BW: I wasn't backed by all of the directors, one in particular undermined me. I thought he was a good guy but I was wrong. I loved the place and I loved the club and that will not change.
Q: The team had a bad start in your last season at Home Park; do you think that once the new players had settled in and given more time you could have moulded the players into a competitive and successful team?
BW: I disagree, we actually had a good start to the season, we won at Reading who never lost another home game all season and then got promoted. We drew with Watford when we should have won, they also got promoted. We also won a league cup match in a competition that we had not done well in for 13 years.
All that tells me is that when the new players and their families were housed and settled it would have got even better. To be let go after four defeats was wrong but that's what happened.
Q: Do you feel you were fairly treated by the Argyle fans?
BW: I never had a problem with the fans, in fact the bunch from St. Dennis are the most passionate and loyal fans I know, any fan who met or knew me would know what the club meant to me.
Q: Taking over as manager for Uganda must have been an exciting surprise for you, have you now moved to Uganda to live?
BW: Yes, I'm living on the outskirts of Kampala.
Q: Uganda narrowly missed out on a place for the next phase of qualifying for the 2010 World Cup. Will you now rebuild the team and assert your influence and management on the complete structure and grassroots of Ugandan football?
BW: My job remit is to educate coaches as well as manage the national team. Team building is always on-going, no-one will be discarded if they are still capable. I will help to restructure the whole of Ugandan coaching.
Q: How does managing a national team compare to club management?
BW: There are too few games and too little time working with players and far more people to please and disappoint when winning and losing matches.
Q: Finally, thank you for all your efforts at Argyle and good luck for the future, do you have a message for everyone connected to Argyle, including the fans?
BW: Yes I do but not for everyone connected to Argyle. The office staff I would like to thank for their help and support, it was great knowing them. To all Argyle fans - it was an honour, privilege and pleasure to manage your great club even though it was all too brief!
All the best!
