    Nor can I and I don't know why.

    He's just got one of those faces you'd love to punch.

    Wonder if SKY will ever be allowed to show the World Cup.

    I'd like to see a programme where Neville dissects the performances of the England boys.

    Well I doubt he'd publicly dissect the team that he is a coach for, might not be the most professional thing to do

    You are completely right, slipped my mind that he's a coach nowadays.

    Not yet he isn't. France going to give him as much time as he needs before a final decision is made.

    As for the WC coverage the BBC wins hands down. ITV look very weak with pundits.

    Some right ****s on both sides. Only one on bbc and two on itv who have had the balls to actually manage.

    Why dont ITV go for Fergie?? I know Wenger usually does French tv but he would be excellent too.

    Our own Brucie would be miles better than a lot of those. Martinez too.

    Whoah.

    Hold on. Andros Townsend is a pundit? Surely you mean Andy Townsend.

    Bit pissed off that the BBC have gone for Rio Ferdinand. I'll switch off when he's on, no doubt.

    SAF and Martinez were both asked but turned the offers down.

    Two things:

    1) ITV were expecting this to happen and, as a result, Keane wasn't listed to be a pundit on the first 2-3 matches that ITV are showing.

    2) Lee Dixon will be doing a lot of co-commentary so may be used less in the studio as a pundit. As will Andy Townsend. (And Robbie Savage and Martin Keown for the BBC).

    Also, if you didn't know, BBC will be using Phil Neville as co-commentator for England games, effectively demoting Mark Lawrenson.

    I think Martinez may be working for ESPN US for the competition but not 100% on that one.

    I know that David Moyes was asked and also turned it down but that was before he was sacked by Man Utd.

    John Terry has been mentioned today as a possible ITV pundit for Roy Keane. Especially for England games as BBC have Rio Ferdinand.

    I'm picturing all the BBC pundits sitting on identical chairs, and you can just see the top of Juninho's head at the bottom of the screen.
