Jimmy Bullard has just said Training Sessions at Fulham under Roy Hodgson

get the cones out

I would think Jimmy Bullard would be bored with any training session.

Knew him growing up and we played for the same kids team and let's face it the guy's got the attention span of a goldfish. He'd find training sessions run by Mourinho and Maradona boring. All he's interested in these days is another night out.

when the deep-thinking Jimmy 'the Secret Footballer' Bullard speaks, it pays to listen

By all accounts Hodgson's training methods are all about keepinng your shape and working on drills, which will indeed be boring for the players, but if it gets them results I'm sure they won't have a problem with it.

Redknapp's never taken a training session whilst he's been at Spurs.

keep your shape , ie dont eat too many burgers and run round them cones a few times

heard the same from the Liverpool players.

Also if the secret to Hodgsons "success" is repition of drills then you have to wonder how effective he can be with England since he'll have the players for a limited time.

The England players are going to be even more bored when they spend 90 minutes without the ball.

It's not something that need to concern Bullard really is it

"Right I want you ten in our half, with the fat, bald lad up front on his own. Lets have 90 minutes of launching it at him."

Hopefully it will mean the end of attempting to shoehorn Gerrard and lampard into the same team, which has basically meant a write off of the last 10 years of England performing well at international level.

Need a set of spare keys for the Opal.

I have a feeling some of the call ups to the squad will be interesting. Bullard may well regret that outburst

"Right I want you ten in our half, with the fat, bald lad up front on his own. Lets have 90 minutes of launching it at him."



the fat lad has a disguise these days, it works so well at man utd even his own players cant find him

ron benson & tony hedges waiting by the phone

Konchelsky on red alert for call up , Carlton Cole also licking his lips

Thinking I might call up Maradona since he is in Manchester.

woy you better wing madonna and see if swp can play out

it's SAFE appointment

idiots at the FA

Is this the same Jimmy Bullard who turned up for training p1ssed?

Not enough 'banter'?


Wtf would he know he's a ****ing moron.

I hope he can make it work - but he has limited time with the players and a dressing room full of egos.

If any of the players cant be bothered following his instructions or dont put 100% in, then I hope Woy doesnt play them. Bring in younger blood who have something to prove. We dont need Terry, we dont need Gerrard or Lampard, we need a team that is at least the sum of its parts.

Woy - "He's got nothing to worry about"

Another clapped out never was sticks the knife in woys  back    Even when the whole Liverpool squad were kicking him over the cliff he never said a bad word about gerrard etc.
Now without the Liverpool players and their bullying wrecking team spirit I reckon our chances are good. I reckon we have a Better chance than Spain in the euros

so he didn't call glen johnson rubbish or totally disown joe cole then

omg doom n gloom ahead, today hodgeson tomorrow bodgeson good god!!!

If he did call Johnson rubbish then augurs well imo

This would be the same Jimmy Bullard who dropped down to Championship level and still failed.
Criticising an England manager.
Ok.

Terrible appointment.

Should have given it to Pardew.

He is a top manager.

picked the big greek lad over agger too

should have paid a bit more attention and tried a little bit harder in training imo

wanted to get rid of Agger and Lucas.

you go to training to work

not to be entertained

^ good post. How is that big lump getting on at the council house.

yes
he tried to sell lucas

played poulsen instead and wealised that was a stoopid mistake

"Right I want you ten in our half, with the fat, bald lad up front on his own. Lets have 90 minutes of launching it at him."

I thought that was Fergie's team talk last night

As an Irishman who has got a lot of comedy value out of England at major championships over the years,I think that the appointment of Hodgson could give England their best opportunity of winning a major tournament since 1966.

Hodgson will play to win the tournament,that is not entertain,but to play defensive and nick a victory or at worst a draw preferrably 0-0 (couldn't resist that bit).

England have the players defensively to stifle good opposition,and the offensive players who have the quality to score against any opposition.

So despite the negativity,I think England have a realistic chance of winning the Euro's,we may be all asleep when/if it happens though!

I would be inspired I I was part of a team team and not just a team.

#justsaying

Did you see how I managed to include more duplications there.

Cunning innit.  Cunning innit.

fooking dreadful appointment

An inspired appointment.

Breaking news!  It doesn't matter who the England manager is, we are at best a quarter final team, maybe if we get lucky a semi final..and thats yer lot.

There's not a lot between all the top teams.  Probably Spain and Brazil still slightly ahead.  But over knockout rounds anything can happen.  Having a well organised team is not a bad option (eg: Italy).

Jimmy who?

Bullard was "warming up" for Ipswich at a game i watched this season and he basically f==ked about...when it was time to come on he wasnt ready, when the crowd gave him stick he fell about laughing...oh yeah and when he did get on he was ****.Bored with training? Bored with playing as well by the look of it
