    Glenn Hoddle.

    2-0 at home to Malta is an embarrassment.

    Get Pep to do it on a part time basis as a couple of hours with him and they will learn more than they would in a year with the shyster Big Sam.

    Chuckle . He does have a 100% win ratio, but then so did Big Sam

    I couldn't hear today's commentary - what was wrong with his comments?

    Correct and correct!

    Watching England is like watching paint dry. I'm sorry but I can't get excited over beating a team like Malta. Even that little pub team up north put 5 past 'em!

    Wenger...
    Hoddle is still the best player I've ever seen. Not the most articulate, though.

    I'd be happy with Wenger, although I'd far rather he stayed a few more years at Arsenal.

    I'd want an Englishman for the English team.

    Mostly second rate countries get a foreigner in and Capello didn't exactly cover himself with glory did he?

    Gawd knows who though!

    Clare Balding, she seems to get every other sporting gig just now and a lack of knowledge and ability hasn't stopped her

    Tony Pulis. Very sensible and at least if nothing else, we wouldn't let in a lot of goals

    Neville & Shearer as a duet. Spreads the 'grief' that surrounds the job and each has a good understanding of the modern game.

    Eh?
    Shearers managerial record for the Toon was poor at best and Chuckles reign at Valencia almost caused a second armada to be sent. Christ, I'd rather give it to Garth Crooks.
    Give it Mancini. As much as Id hate to see him looking coolly understated in an Ingerlund scarf, at least he'd have the balls to flirt Wooney from his seemingly untouchable role.

    A wonderful player... I would rather have that as my abiding memory of the man... I can not stand his commentary... it's just plain odd at times!

    Suprised you want Wenger to stay... always managed to stay above Spurs

    Might be different this year though?

    Your powers of perception are strong :-)

    He is a bellend, but, he'd be our bellend...

    As for the Neville brothers, Gary talked a very good game on TV and got a lot of admirers but sadly found out in Spain that talking is all he is good at.

    I can't come up with any English managers (Bruce?) so it looks like we'll have to stick with Gareth.
    Cheers,

    .
    Take your point, but then the so-called successful managers haven't exactly covered themselves in glory? The last decent manager was maybe Venables who previously managed Spurs (nuff said) and Barcelona (before they were good). Even SirAlf only one one Div1 title with Ipswich.

    My thinking is based upon spreading 'the load' in both football and media terms and maybe reigniting some fan interest in national football - I hadly know anyone who really gives a shit anymore and just looks forward to the return of league football.

    Tess Daly, I'm guessing that even blindfolded she could have picked a team from sheet of paper with players names and a pin and got the same result and at least she will have good shoes.

    Klopp, just for the interviews alone.

    Pep just to stop Man City this season.

    Being more realistic as I think consensus will ask for an Englishman Pardew or Redknap as they seem to get along ok with average teams so will fit right in with the England squad.

    And her foghorn voice will come in handy for shouting instructions from the sidelines.

    True.

    Hart was definitely man of the match, a couple of unbelievable saves.

    Redknapp would be the smartest choice although I nearly peed myself at the stuffed envelope comment.
