What's the betting that Roy Hodgson gets a knighthood for all the wonderful work he's been doing with England? Wouldn't that be a massive kick in the teeth for the Mousers! Imagine it. "King" Kenny gets deported for his support of racists. Clown Benitez never gets to work in the Prem ever again. Brendan Rodgers becomes the worst manager in LFC's history. But Hodgson, whom the Mousers forced to "walk alone," in what will undoubtedly prove to be one of the most disgraceful betrayals in any sport, in any part of the world, and at any time in history, "gentleman" Roy is given a knighthood! I'd laugh my cock off (again)!
Well, think about it. He captained one and played for the other then went on to take their biggest rivals to the very top and eclipsed them both. They must feel the pain and, in their darkest moments, wonder why he never returned to their clubs to lead them to glory
I doubt they wonder all that much - Busby simply chose the biggest and best club to manage. Like when Shankly was rung by the Liverpool chairman and asked if he wanted to manage the best club in England. His reply: "Why, is Matt Busby retiring?" Pretty harsh when your greatest manager rates your greatest rivals higher
