Roy Hodgson - England Manager.................

[R32UK]

I nominate R32UK to be next England manager 

Thanks. But with those fools incharge and our recent fall out they wont hire me 


On a positive note I now have a new signature quote

Statistics mean nothing. Ok, they do. But IMO a manager is only as good as the squad he commands. A manager I feel can only do as much as choose the best available line up and choose the 'best' way to play the game. Managers all ways take the brunt of a team performing badly even if it an unlucky losing streak they are on on even if the players are just being tools and playing like I do on at a weekend.

What I'm trying to say it Roy has possibly been fortunate with the clubs he has managed at a time when the club has performed it's best, which they may have performed as well with a different manager.

Ya get me bruv?

thank god a English manager who knows the English game,,,well done Woy

Elvi is being the devils advocate I think, the Welsh folk I have spoken to today think its pretty funny that Woy has got the England job.
A field of sheep was pointed at with the insinuation that it held more talent within its dry stone walls...........

I have to totally agree with this

Its a gamble whichever manager is chosen for the job and there isn't one single man that can guarantee he will get the best out of that England squad. Capello with all his credentials couldn't do it, not could any of the others in recent history. At the end of the day its a real bad time to be changing the coaching staff so soon before the tournament and gives the new manager no time to stamp his authority on the side. Its more or less down to the players, its up to them to show their average wage is justified and that they are good enough to win against the competition. The problem the new manager will have is who to pick as the England set up is saturated with so many good young players and experienced internationals. Does he have time to source a winning team out of them...I doubt it!!

Capello couldnt do it??? 

You do know why Capello is not longer the england manager dont you?

Not really....something to do with that nugget John Terry being stripped of the captaincy and he not being best pleased about it. The FA employ these managers to win them tournaments do they not? And they didn't fair too well in the last one!!

The smart man might say....

Harry is still under contract at Spurs - reports of £14 million of buy him out/compo.  Roy is out of contract at the end of the season. After spunking £24 million on Mr Mumbles and similar with The Shagger, the FA are not exactly flush at the mo (Stadium debt)

Now, your English team are not playing well, and by all accounts are not expected to do well in the Euro's.  So it's Win win. 

2 years later, Roy is gone, just when Harry's contract is up at Spurs, and he walks in as Saviour for free.

I believe the cricketing term is Night Watchman.
