Big Sam England manager.

Cant do any worse than his predecessors

He could if we fail to qualify for the next WC or EC.

By appointing SA, it feels like we've given up any hope whatsoever of being anything more than second-rate.

Says all you need to know about our FA.

Wouldn't we be better off appointing Mike Bassett? 

Well well well...

He must have come cheap. Metinks after all the dosh the eyetie cost em they are treading very carefully. After all, Hodgson must have cost a big bag of quavers..

Bertie Basset, would liquorice them into shape in no time.

All he has to do is pick the right players in the right formation. It's not a difficult job. The success or failure of the England team is down to the players,not the manager.

So Big Sam will do.

anubis7 , I remember Clough saying they will always pick someone who will agree to play all the money spinning 'friendlies' which he said he would not as they serve little purpose.

Fred Basset would hound them into shape imo

wit-ham

you only win the world cup if you host it.

it's all a financial fix.

Didn't France Reach the final of the Euros.

20 tournies and only 6 won by the host nation.
