    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    Are they all the same? Why didn't we give up on English managers after McClaren?

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    That's not how nationalities work. He's still an English football manager As he is a football manager.....from England

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    Contracts tend to be in tournament cycles to protect the FA from keeping a manager who has bombed at a tournament. This contract sees him through the 2026 world cup.

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    No he didn't. I've just looked back at the post. He didn't say any such thing. You made the statement "the worst England managers were both foreign". The poster then simply put a table showing Capello had the highest win % and questioned how he could be the worst ever. He never said he was...

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    Right. He doesn't HAVE to have a successful club record............but you're whole tone is suggesting having one is a bad thing. This coach has one, why is that an issue?

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    Did a foreign coach ever fail to qualify for an international tournament? No one is saying Capello or Sven did a GOOD job. But to say the two foreign coaches we've had have been the worst is just incorrect.

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    What does qualify you to manage at international level? If "being successful" is the wrong criteria then what do you want? Apart from being one of those bloody FOREIGNERS, Tuchel couldn't be any more different to Capello if he tried.

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    Fans: "Southgate is boring and isn't a winner. We need someone who will take the handbrake off and has a track record of winning things". The FA: "Here's a manager who won the CL with a non-fancied team, has managed big players and has won league titles and cups in differing countries whilst...

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    Impossible to say if he would be a good or bad appointment. International football is almost an entirely different sport to manage in compared to club football. Look at the experience of the last managers to win the euros and world cup as well as the England manager who made 2 finals. I like...

    Well we have come out of the 3 divisional matches having won all 3. Now 4-2 I had hope but I didn't expect it to click.

    Great. That's really useful. Thanks

    [Technology] If you could afford it would your next car be an EV?

    I was tentatively looking for the first time at the idea of a cheap second hand EV (I'm talking CHEAP) just for the smallest of run arounds with one child. Tiny is fine. I was really surprised to see just how cheap the Zoe's are coming up. I'll be honest, I've done no research into the matter...

    [Music] Great “worst” albums

    Ignore me. Commenting on wrong album. However I'm still stunned by the above. Come Together, Oh Darling, I Want You, Because and Golden Slumbers all "absolute shite".

    I remember wanting to not listen to this song that everyone was saying was massive on Myspace. Nah, I'm not conforming. Then I heard it. Oof

    [Music] Greatest debut single

    Mr Brightside isn't a bad one. Not the best song on what was a brilliant album, and I might be missing something obvious but I can't think of many "all time classic"* anthems since (2004). *One that gets everyone going at a wedding/night out

    [Music] The Greatest Band ever!

    Yes it's the obvious answer to pick the 4 lads but for changing of styles in a short period, impact on future generations of musicians and leaving a back catalogue of phenomenal music I just can't look past Mcfly

    [Music] Prompted by Greatest Band ever - Greatest Single ever

    Part tongue in cheek but it's actually a pop masterpiece. Has about 4 different choruses in one pop song.

    [Music] Greatest debut single

    (hit me) Baby One More Time - Britney Don't pretend it's not a tune. I remember seeing this unknown new act from America play her debut song on the national lottery (hosted by dale winton I believe). I was 13, eating cheese on toast at my grandads house and she appeared on the TV in that...
