I hope he fails and I know MLS is regarded with utter contempt by some on here, but he did a pretty good job at NYCFC which was the first club he managed. He got them to second in the Eastern Conference in both his seasons there...

After a great result from England the weekend keeps getting better with the Yankees beaten 8-3 by the Mets in Round 1 of the Subway Series

He was, putting a 78 year old in charge is never a good move, a lot of people were disappointed that with the population of America it came down to Biden as the only alternative choice. The American system is as broken as the UKs. He is really enjoying a honeymoon period at the minute, will be...
