[Uncle Spielberg]

Who should it be ?.

 

[Icy Gull]

Definitely gonna be an outsider, probably 3rd or 4th choice after all the decent managers have made their excuses.

 

[RonnieO'Sullivan]

ur getting tight odds there favourite can be got at 5s

 

[Stinky Kat]

barwick will select pearce - he is cheap and will not stand up to the FA old boy network

 

[Icy Gull]

I'd give it to Steve Coppell, a man who gets the best out of average players, just what's needed. Only problem would getting Joe Public to believe these players are only average in World Class terms.

I'd happily watch an England team that played with the spirit of most Coppell selections and knew their limitations rather than a media led "we can win the whole tournament with the players we've got" mentality. I could even accept results like last night if I thought every player had given his all and knew what he was supposed to be doing. Patently not the case in last night's debacle.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Coppell at 20/1 is a good shout and would be my choice

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Mourinho is too much of a live wire for those old farts to pick him

 

[Da Man Clay]

Wont be either of the first two. Capello gets my shout, old enough to not be worried about future jobs and has done well elsewhere.

Exactly are the same people in charge of the FA now as when Clough was overlooked in the 1970ies

 

[TonyW]

Claudio Ranieri - legend.

If that wanker O'Neill gets the job, I won't watch our national team whilst he's in charge.

 

[Barrow Boy]

Who should it be ?.

The chosen One,
master tactician, proven motivator of overpaid prima-donnas, treats the media with the contempt they usually deserve, and is extremely cool, not a ginger headed red faced northern muppet.

 

[zefarelly]

what was wrong with the other poll ?

 

[dwayne]

Definitely NOT coppell. He can't handle pressure at Big clubs, he's more a small club man. (remember Man City)

I would give it to Cappelo, incredible managerial record and really wants the job, he's a good fit.

 

[supaseagull]

Wont be either of the first two. Capello gets my shout, old enough to not be worried about future jobs and has done well elsewhere.

No no no no. He upset the players and left Roma 4th from bottom. He was involved in the corruption debacle that cost Juventus a place in Serie A and he was the idiot who was slated by the Madrid fans and who sold Beckham to LA.

Cappello is no different to McLaren and I truly hope he doesn't get the job.

 

[Pavilionaire]

I think O'Neill ticks all the boxes that the FA draw up and I can see him in charge.

 

[clippedgull]

We need a person with f***ing passion and a team to match.

Sorry for swearing

 

[desprateseagull]

jose could be good- waiting for his odds to go up a bit..

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Where's the option for (very) mainstream movie director Stephen Spielberg? (aka Ian Botham in US's avatar). I'm sure Hollywood's loss would be England's gain.

 

[Buzzer]

Big Ron Atkinson anyone?
