You couldn't pay me all the money in the world to be the nation's most public laughing stock.

[Vivienne]

Yep, you manage it minus the cash.

[MK Chris]

Haha I gotta hand it to you, you made me chuckle there.. I'm not so public though.

[Vivienne]

I'd actually made myself laugh really hard whilst writing it.

You couldn't pay me all the money in the world to be the nation's most public laughing stock.

You could pay me that much to do just about anything - I wouldn't care

[Billy85]

So let's presume it's a given that McLaren is on his way out. Who would you like to take his place?

Personally, if the FA can affoard him I'd go for Mourinho. The England team needs someone with some big cahoonas who's going to put the "stars" in their place. Added to that he's a tactical genius and he's dead sexy too.


Your thoughts please.

Mourinho Wudnt' do it he wud turn it down

[S4B]

Billy! Spell properly please and please expound on that theory, just saying something without backing it up with some sort of argument is just ridiculous!

I will ??expound?? i just dont think he would do it i would be shocked if he was asked and if he took it

[S4B]

Again why would you be shocked? This is just your opinion with no substance behind it!

[Billy85]

i dont know why i dont think he would do it i just think that he would not and my opinion is my opinion i dont care if you think there is no substance behind it

[foot-loose]

Again why would you be shocked? This is just your opinion with no substance behind it!

Ach, let the boy be.

Poor lad is just giving his opinion.

[MK Chris]

Mourinho has ruled himself out, I guess that would be the substance.

[S4B]

Now that's a proper defenseive arguement! Thank you Mr Topher. Shame though, I like Jose he makes me laugh!!!

[kendra k]

i officially nominate myself. i've got nothing but a foul mouth and a love of the game.

[Bonanzoid]

id give it a bash for the right money...





... same goes for the job!

A Scot as the England manager? Go for it. I think it'a high time for an internal saboteur.

[Yudster]

Did you see the squad Sven took to the World Cup? If that wasn't sabotage, I don't know what was.

I wouldn't mind a Scot. At least then we'd have a good excuse for never qualifying for anything ever again, which is a better scenario than currently.

[foot-loose]

Aww come on Yuds - that's not the English way, to blame others for their problems... oh, wait...

[Yudster]

Not blaming anyone else right now. We'll see what transpires. I still think the changes need to be at the top of the FA, rather than within the England coaching staff though. And seriously, if Alex Ferguson would take the job, I'd be happy. He might be a purple-nosed drunkard (allegedly), but I reckon he'd do a fantastic job.

[claradooblue]

I'm still thinking Harry Redknapp. He's also red-nosed enough to give Ferguson a run for his money anyday.

[MK Chris]

This Capello fella seems to have achieved quite a lot at the top levels of the game and he seems keen. What more can you ask for? (Except for an English manager, but which current English managers have actually achieved anything?)

[Yudster]

Agreed - but a foreign manager who can actually speak English might be useful. Actually, that rules Alex Ferguson out doesn't it........

[MK Chris]

Steve Coppell made me laugh: "everyone keeps talking about me getting the England job, but for some reason they've added an 'O' on to the end of my name!"

[Yudster]

I think we could do worse than Steve Coppell.

[Bonanzoid]

And so Scotland are also now looking for a manager. Why oh why can't we hold down a decent manager?

[kendra k]

what do you think of platini's assertions that a non-english manager will ruin the team. i don't know, sometimes i think he needs to shut up.
