baggy89 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Steve Evans left Crawley for Rotherham, meaning first-team coach Craig Brewster is caretaker manager. Started off with a 2-1 win today. That'll be him adding his name to the list of Broon's successor behind Paul Hartley then? Odd that Coppell has been inserted a DoF today. I assumed the crook walked and took the Rotherham job because the source of creepies money had or was about to disappear. It'll be interesting to see how long Brewster lasts as I'd always assumed he'd be too principled to get involved in the brown envelope culture that seems to follow Evans around.

tlg1903 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Fuck Would much rather redknapp got it. tactically clueless, his best ability is spending money well. Cant do that internationally and i think he would struggle as a result. Hodgson is the opposite, good at working with what he's got and getting them to play well. Hallmark of his best teams is they are greater than the sum of their parts, knows international management too. Only downside i can see on woy is that the players might be unimpressed as he's not a 'big name' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tlg1903 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Liverpool fans i know said to me they felt it was too big a job for him. Most were raging at the treatment of benitez as well which didn't help and add to that he was seen as the hicks/gillete appointment. Hindsight is wonderful but looking back he never had much of a chance at anfield with so many factors going against him. That hodgson is better qualified for the role is a no brainer, i really hope that england fans respond the same way as Liverpool fans did. Hows the news being taken down south manc?

rocket_scientist Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Woy for Engerlund is magic. He's such a fud. The FA are hilariously inept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 Woy for Engerlund is magic. He's such a fud. The FA are hilariously inept. Tend to agree with this, Woy has specialised in getting "wee" teams punching above their weight and when given the big deal job, woyally fucking it up. I sense a woyal fuck up. And W.O.W.

I sense a woyal fuck up. And W.O.W. I think Hodgson is more likely to get screwed by players and fans not being impressed than by his ability. I've looked but i can't find it again but i read earlier that hodgson at one point got switzerland to 3rd in the fifa world rankings! Thats mental if true!

glasgowdon Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 I actually think Hodgson is a good appointment. The only doubts I would have as an Englandshire fan are the following: 1. Is he a big enough name for the players to respect? 2. Will he keep playing the same guys who fail time and time again? I guess 1. could be eradicated by the answer to 2. being "no".

I think he's a better shout for them than Redknapp. If their so called golden generation are not happy then he should just bin them. Obviously I hope for an epic fail though.

Agreed, having to deal with Messrs Gerrard and Terry is enough to send anyone loopy. Tlg, in response to your post, i haven't really heard anyone moan about it. Most people just suspect it's about money which it clearly is but no-ones moaned. Give it time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
