Ha Ha.... Would be a laugh... Can imagine the interviews now... "got to do it for the speckies" "We have a great bunch of committed lads" etc etc. Would be the exact same scouse drivel we heard when he was at Scun7horpe.

'Arry for me. He will have done nothing but think about it last night contrary to what he tells the press. Bet he even got his missus to draw up a team sheet for the game against Holland. (After all he can't do it himself, according to his trial).

No doubt he'll take a lot of positives out of that list.

oh come on now. be fair, i bet that harry is very good with the old dic-tation ? :D
 
I don't get the argument that the next manager must be English. People say that an English manager would get the English players more motivated etc than a foreign one. It didn't happen with McLaren, Keegan, Hoddle, Graham Taylor etc.

I personally would like Hiddink. Harry may get caught out tactically - he hasn't had a great deal of experience in European competitions.

I also don't see how we could have a part-time manager leading up to the Euros. That would be shocking preparation
 
I for one would love to see Hope Powell manage in the english leagues but not the england team just yet

Tabloid journo's dream - can you see the headlines? 'Hope's Heroes' (or villains - take your pick), 'Here's Hope-ing for success' etc etc......... Think you've got a point though - she comes across as one tough cookie, sure she'd sort the likes of JT out no problem!

And when they got to the point where she's sacked/quits:

Hopeless England

Since the press seem to think they can control the team we might as well let them do it directly. It might also have the benefit of stopping them from digging up all the worst bits about the squad only to announce them the day before the tournament starts even though they've known for months.

Who hasn't been taking their anti-cynicism pills then?
 
so the fa would prefer an English or British manager

Could anyone see a Scot managing an English side when the Scots support themselves or anyone who plays against England

surely any nationality is better than those north of the border


I await eagerly for any response
