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.

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.

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

He's managed national teams before, managed Switzerland in USA 94 and apparently did very well with Finland too and someone else, he's managed all over the world, he does show a lot of passion on the sidelines and managed the likes of Inter & Liverpool so you never know. He has a lot of experience and maybe, just maybe this will prove to be a very shrewd move. He seems more like an international manager than a club manager. Yid fans must be over the moon btw.

I'm not saying it's the best choice but at least he has seen it and done it in international football. Arry asn't. There's no substitute for experience in football.
