What does the English FA represent?

Sweet FA.

Another mild-mannered, non-entity that wont rock the 'official' boat.

Another inspired choice to guarantee a fast paced, action packed rise to World football domination ...

Roy Hodgson, who'd have thunk it?  Must have been a big contingent of the Kop that lobbied for that one....

    Barry, I think it has something to do with soccer. Or aliens.

    Well, he hasn't done much since Supertramp broke up, give him a chance.

    I'm surprised that anyone is surprised.

    Greenwood, Taylor, Hoddle, Eriksson, McClaren? Not exactly a great track record of picking the right guy. Capello was a bit of an odd choice too for that matter.

    Not a fan of Woy at all, but Arry is too much of a dodgy geezer, which is what did for Venables in the end and probably also too expensive seeing as how it seems you have to pay his dog as well.

    I ent surprised.

    It's just that poor man is going to end up being villified for yet another failure and I'm surprised that nobody yet has fulfilled the idea of torpedoing that bunch of self-serving cronies who seem to do nothing at any level of the game except congratulate themselves.

    Can't argue with that. Their record at appointing their own executives is not exactly brilliant either (Kelly, Crozier, Palios to name a few) Gartside seems like a reasonable bloke from what I've seen of him (not much) so I guess we should at least be grateful that we didn't get his mate Big Sam ............... Hoooooooof !!

    Sometimes I wonder why anyone would want the job as it's only ever a matter of time before they become ridiculed by the press because of the unrealistic level of expectation built up by the same. In recent years we had a team that in theory should have been capable to challenge the very best for some time, but for whatever reason, they blew it and if not over the hill now then most are certainly on the top of the hill looking down. Sadly the new generation don't really look up to much, so it's a hiding to nothing for whoever is in charge as far as I can see.

    I think the ghost of Brian Clough would have been a better choice.

    Hodgson will no doubt do as he's told, so he's a pefect choice for the FA.

    I can't believe he is the only candidate they've approached or are interviewing.

    Poor old Harry Redknob must be thinking he's missed his chance for good, unless they're going to appoint him when we get knocked out of the group stage at the Euros.

    All the FA want is another Yes man. (No, not Wakeman etc)

    They had a bear by the tail in Capello who wouldn't toe the party line, so it was adios Fabio.

    Can't really see Woy making any difference, not while the squad is controlled by two or three massive dressing room ego's (you know who I mean)

    Now there's an idea, making a video of how to be untalented. Then again I may be able to just video that straight from the Euros coverage.

    If I were to make a video on how to be unfunny, it would be 37,351 posts long.

    Should I create a chapter for each one?

    Good call.

    Although come July, we might be using 'Hodgson' as a derogotary term.
    As in...
