"good god.....dont the FA remember what happened at Anfield?? "

seeings as the liverpool supporters didnt give him a chance because they wanted king kenny back, then thats hardly fair (btw, good call on kenny, he has been awesome for you)

hodgeson will be fine.

he gets players playing within themselves in a very controlled and organised way.

Redknapp is a tub thumper, along the same lines as keegan. thing i have noticed about him, and his teams, however, is there seems to be no plan B. his teams need to be playing well to win, there is no grinding out results like the best teams can, so thats why harry isnt the man for the job. give it hodgeson.

all we are saying, is give roy a chance

What differnce does it make who the manager is be is redknapp or hodgson i dont think it makes a blind bit of differnce the man in the street could probably do just as well as the england managers job is a poisoned chalice i mean weve just had what many "top managers in the game reffered to as one of the greatest managers in the game in cappello and what did he achieve ..sweet fa ... i think results will only come When the current england players treat playing for there country as an honour rather than an inconvienience

turniphead taylor said what the fa were thinking yesterday on five live (and lets not forget, he is on the advisory panel in the inner sanctum)

they want someone that will be going into Burton to oversee the young players, the under 21's, organise the while structure of the English football franchise, as it were, dont think even Pep did that at Barca (i may be wrong). the philosophy was there at Barca, thats what they want here, and Redknapp aint that manager

he lives on the southcast, so aint gonna be in the midlands half the week (has never managed north of watford gap).

i would actually like to se hoddle brought back into the England fold too, cuz i thought he was a bloody good manager, and with the work he has done with his schools out in Spain, for players that have lost contracts, i think he would also make a very good addition to the developement team in Burton.

Brian Clough was the best England manager we NEVER HAD.

The Peoples Choice just like Harry Rednap.

The F.A.had their blinkers on during that period as well and again took absolutely NO notice of the fans.

Look at the parade of tossers they installed in the Job since Sir Alf.

Am not saying Roy Hodgson is a tosser,i'm quite sure he's a gentleman and is thoughrouly competant to do the Job.

But we the Fans,we the Punters know who should get the job.

Obviously it has to be an Englishman now after the imported disasters we've had (even a talented North of the Border Jock would do)

Good luck to Mr.Hodgson he deserves to be repected because he is now the England Manager.

But the F.A. old farts have got it magnificently wrong again.

and like I said, 35% win rate across his career and no major trophies. Got Blackburn relegated when they were the most expensive team in the League, was pretty shit at Inter too given the fact he had the likes of Ronaldo and Baggio. The Liverpool job was far too big for him. Ditto England.

Actually, the fans were keen to give Roy fair crack but we had our worst start to a league season for over 50 years and played horrific football...and for a supposedly intelligent man, he didn't grasp what the mentality had to be at the club...saying getting a result against Everton would have been 'utopia' after they beat us 2-0, beating Trabzonspor was a famous victory, saying he hoped we didn't get hammered 6-0 by City, critising the fans for protesting against the owners when we were two weeks from going out of existance.

Aren't arguing from a strong position? We were in the relegation zone under Roy Hodgson after a decent chunk of the season. If he had won a trophy and got us to anther final he would still be manager, is the bottom line. Unfortuntaely we got knocked out of the League Cup. By Northampton Town. At Anfield.

redknapp also got southampton relegated

also was a big contributer to portsomouth being in the position they are now in

he isnt the perfect candidate for the job.

tbh i would MUCH rather have neither of them, (holloway for england) but i trust that hodgeson is a good appointment ON AN ALL ROUND BASIS, as he would oversee the entire developement from top to bottom, redknapp wouldnt.

and, if it was all about motivation, which harry obviously can do, then why wasnt keegan more successful? he got found out for being tacticaly inept, he was the 'peoples choice' dont forget, and was terrible.

I am a Baggies fan and to be fair to hogson he has brought something to the club, the game against Liverpool proved that, we got wacked but never gave up. Liverpool never wanted him and showed it. I think he could make a difference to England he does not do favourites and with phyco by his side I think given some time we can play football against the best and walk away at the end with our heads held high. The FA will not have Rednapp there is to much in his past proven or not for them to take the risk.

They should have given it to Hiddink the day after Capello left, imo.

As opposed to Hodgson, he actually has a CV and much more international experience and success.

They could have got him before he went to Anzhi, not to mention he wanted the job.

but Crapello was in the hotseat then wasnt he?

couldnt just sack him as it would have cost too much.

Capello left nearly 2 weeks before Hiddink got the Anzhi job. But no, the brief was for an Englishman...so we end up with a manger with no trophy worth mentioning in a 36 year career.

they looked at an englishman because thats what fans wanted.

ateotd harry is and never was worth the reported 10 million compo spurs were looking for, let alone the wage.

back roy or dont support england, its your choice. simples.

hope he doesnt lead them to victory in any of the tournaments he manages them in, because you will be sat in anfield with all the other haters unable to celebrate

The moral of this story... people are never happy.

I think Woy will be alright, if his greatest achievement (as a head of a England supporters club put it) is to lower expectations then im all for that. The constant WE MUST WIN IT ALL, ALL THE TIME * incomprehensible shouting* attitude just sets the team up for failure. We should be happy as supporters to see commitment, spirit and fight no matter the final result.

Lol, like McLaren you mean? Englishman that didn't even get the 'Golden Generation' to the Euros.

Haters? He got a warm reception at Anfield last week. It's just he's a very average manager, is all. Stoke City had 64% possession against Roy's Liverpool side. The first time they've had over 50% since they were promoted. Good luck against Spain etc.

Hope he does well obviously but just think it's a bad decision.

Hodgson is the manager and that's not likely to change in the immediate future so we have to get behind him and hope he's the manager England has needed for 36 years.

A couple of things in his favour is that he doesn't seem as money-driven as past England managers (a la Sven & Capello), and he is the kind of guy I can envisage donning a track suit and getting himself to St George's Park, Burton-on-Trent on daily basis to oversee the England youth setup at the new National Football Acadamy, set to open this year. Capello wouldn't have done that, nor Redknapp.

Let's give the guy a chance and see what he can do.

There is nothing like a controversial manager. He may do well or not but you know what ever happens some won't be happy with him. Not my first choice but there are far worse alternatives.

it could be a good move with roy as he got a wealth of experience to pass onto stu pearce who is being groomed as a new england manager!,pearce needs a few more years experience and the steadying influence & the guiding hands of hodgson could be just the thing with his wealth of continental experience.

could be the FA are looking at the long term?.

Roy Hodgson speaks Norwegian, Swedish, Japanese, German, Italian, Korean, Danish, French and Finnish.

Still won't help him understand Steven Gerrard.

Terry granted but Frank's quite well spoken for an essexman,but then he was privately educated. have a look at his FWA award speech on the 'bluefrankielamps' site..He's a bright kid

Typical English I'm afraid. Roy has been brilliant for us.
