The Hairspray demands could prove too much for the FA I fear.

Could you imagine the team talk??? Rooney "Yes Boss,I'll drop off the last defender...Now sit down,wash yer face,comb yer hair and shut the fuck up!"

Owen"yeah I can't see the blackboard for your hair you scruffy cunt!" :evil4:

Allardyce an Curbishley must be stabbin McClaren Voodoo dolls in their desperate attempts to sabotage the FA's appointment.

I want Bobby Robson and Stuart Pearce double act for England

15 Apr 2006, 15:44

Pearce for me, but it won't be. Whoever gets the job will be fucked as a manager from therein - it will ruin their reputation. A poisoned chalice, the England job, anything other than winning the European Championships and World Cup won't be good enough. Those fuckers in the tabloids will see to that.

I'd be happy with any of the names listed BUT O'Neil as i truly believe Ingerlund would win a major tournament with Martin at the helm, and we don't want that to happen now, do we?!!

Is it me or have all the principal managers' seasons all imploded as the most crucial of times? Bolton and Man City have both just lost six on the bounce, haven't they? Curbishley was seen kicking a ball at an opponent yesterday, has whinged about O'Neill being out of the spotlight in the press, and lost the big one to a rival in the FA Cup Semi.

Only one looking any good at the moment is McLaren, but who would've said that 2 months ago when they lost 4-0 at home to Villa (was it?). He's the one with the most experience outside the domestic game as well, with the England setup, and his current UEFA cup run must be winning him brownie points.

Pearce is probably one for the future, but not now. He's taken Man City to a worse position than when he started and his public vilification of his team recently just isn't on. It's like he's distancing himself from the blame, which I don't like. You never see the likes of Fergie do that.

I'd go for O'Neill. Seems to be the most articulate, charismatic, and above all succesful of the candidates. Seems to be highly regarded by players alike. Only downside against him is the Celtic thang, but it would be good to break down barriers. I mean, if the likes of Alan Thompson can get boo'ed for all 45mins of his England debut I wonder what your average Billy Britain is gonna make of 'one of them' actually being in charge for a fair long while. Interesting.
