Never expected this.

[zolayes 14,489]

BUT what about Arry and Rosie????

[Melanicus 5,208]

So, 'Arry is staying?

[NiclasCFC 2,582]

So, 'Arry is staying?

If Hodgson and the FA agree on a deal yes

[Kojo 4,676]

Shit this isn't good, because Spurs players might settle now because it's almost definite Harry isn't going to be the next England manager.

[Laylabelle 9,395]

Yeah their trouble started when the rumours started...

Bit of a random choice but guess they're realising they're running out of time.

there is always Grant and Fat WASTER

[Laylabelle 9,395]

Think Grant have a hard time doing England job...cant get anyone relegated and does pretty well at that

[Jase 43,479]

Woy to win EURO 2012 with Wengland.

Shocking, almost like the Clough scenario back in the day. Redknapp, for all he has done in the Premiership over the years is the best candidate in my opinion and probably everyone elses.

Hodgson has a 38% win ratio with WBA, was sacked by Liverpool after a few months and relegated Blackburn in 1999.

The FA have chose a cheap option and the one that no one expected. Maybe Harry secretly said he doesn't want it yet, i dunno.

I wish him good luck tho.

the fa are incompetent cunts they can never do anything right. One simple task get Harry if they decide to take another arrogant risk on a gaffer no one wants it will be a joke.

[bababoom 4,478]

I don't think anyone from the FA read the papers, or watch TV...

Seeing as Harry is 'loved' by the media this wont go down well if Roy is our manager, i think he'll get slated by the media before his first match.

[Billy. 2,742]

no disresepct to Roy but i dont think hes good enough for the job hes a good manager but not an England manager imo

[Spike 12,049]

Haha, England get your shit together. Why is there always a colossal screw up before a major tournament?

Another thing annoys me, at any other country in the world Matt Le Tissier would have been capped more than 8 times.

[capriccioso 2,545]

[Mr. Ziggles 110]

And they wonder why we can't win a freakin' tournament. Nope, not even the Euros. Just one World Cup in 1966. Bobby Moore would be ashamed. Just get a damn manager already and prepare for the tournament. You know what? Forget it, I'm a GB supporter this summer. I'll watch the Euros chanting "COME ON ENGLAND!!" but I know Team GB has a realistic chance of winning the Olympics in Footy.

Hodgson is probably seen by the FA as the 'safe' option..

The FA is largely composed of posh well paid old farts that know fuck all about the game, and dont want their sensibilities ruffled by anyone with 'character', or who stands up for themselves.

If we take the 'Terry incident' -Woy would go along with everything they say -rather than that 'stubborn' Italian.

Bottom line is also -England are nothing more than a Quarter final team at best, so it doesnt really matter
