    [Football] Who do you want to be England manager?

    Interesting. How did he do this? Presumably some journo has asked him and he'd say he'd consider? There aren't many jobs that he wouldn't consider given he is unemployed I guess.

    [Football] Who do you want to be England manager?

    There record for pivoting from tactically exciting (but potential off field baggage) to dull but safe is pretty amazing. Terry Venables - great tactician, but dodgy as off the field, lots of baggage Glenn Hoddle - born again Christian, seemed like a decent fella until he started having a go at...

    [Football] Who do you want to be England manager?

    Absolutely no chance of the FA choosing him. The FA basically chose based on the success or failure or the previous manager. They lurch from one type to another. Foreign to English and back again. But given Southgate is perceived (by the FA at least) as a great success I'm pretty sure they...

    [Football] Who do you want to be England manager?

    It may be that it's generally minor nations that go down the road of a foreign manager, yes.

    [Football] Who do you want to be England manager?

    Although I agree on ability on Poch and Klopp as I posted above, the stats show only one country has won a trophy with a foreign manager. Greece in the Euros. No one else has done it.

    You're right, we should be calling it Senedd Cymru, or just The Senedd. Interesting.

    [Football] Who do you want to be England manager?

    If foreign then Klopp or Poch. Good understanding of the English game and maybe more importantly the culture. Sven was okay, Capello was awful.

    [Politics] Labour Party meltdown incoming.......

    I think it's pretty important to the Welsh actually. Even the BBC describe it as "Starmer's" first crisis. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cleyl8ln66et

    [Football] Who do you want to be England manager?

    I'm in two minds. I'm naturally inclined to a young Englishman as I think it's important that they have a good bond with the players. However Southgate has done a great job generating the desire to pl;ay for England and therefore what we really now need is the icing on the cake of someone who is...
