staines_rebel_Jr Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 The FA have overlooked Neil and Jon and have decided to appoint some bloke called Gareth Southgate as manager of the England men's national team for the next 4 years. His achievement's in management: Senior; Getting relegated with Middlesbrough. Under 21; 2015 - coming bottom of their European cup group despite being the top seeded team in the competition.

BFR Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 In fairness to Southgate, he coached England U-21 to success at the Toulon Tournament last summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuntman Mark Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I think he's probably a good fit for where the team are right now. It's not like there were loads of better options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staines_rebel_Jr Posted November 30, 2016 Author Share Posted November 30, 2016 Admittedly there are not a huge number of great English managers available right now but surely Nigel Pearson, Brian McDermott, Stuart Pearce or Nigel Adkins are better candidates who are unemployed right now. Even Alan Shearer I think would be better. Some better overseas managers currently available; Louis Van Gaal, Marcelo Bielsa, Guus Hiddink, Frank De Boer, Roberto Mancini. p.s it wasn't exactly a strong Toulon tournament this year.

Glover Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I was worried when Neil wasn't at the match last night, I thought he may be up at Wembley getting measured for a new suit instead of being at home with the sniffles. (Get better soon Neil) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3spirit Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Didn't see you there last night 3spirit, too cold for you? Yes ! Too cosy indoors, couldn't be bothered. Glad we won,though. Sounds like I missed a good Slough performance. Might not make Saturday's game either, as England rugby match is on. Still I bought a Slough season ticket, so no revenue lost, even if I have become a lightweight ! ha ha ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
