I'm already stretching the limits of my statistical analysis skills (adding and dividing). I think you'd need to pay Opta to confirm what you know to be true.

yeah, pointless to look for confirmation from a source i'd disregard if it disagreed with my opinion (ie any source, tbf)

this probably happens more often in neighbourhoods with more bossmaners and bossmanees

New England boss Roy Hodgson spoke with John Terry and Rio Ferdinand on Tuesday and has decided that only one can go to Euro 2012, according to ESPN sources.
The expectation is that the Chelsea captain will miss out on the European Championships, but that remains unconfirmed until the squad is announced at 1pm on Wednesday.
― mizzell, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:16 (twelve years ago) link
that wd already make him second best England manager ever
― Vermicious Knid A (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:21 (twelve years ago) link
This is a pretty swift fall from grace for Terry, no? Out of the CL final, out of the Euros, Andy Carroll making him look like a dick. A slightly slower decline might be better, maybe a bit of pathos, to let the media narrative catch up.
― Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:51 (twelve years ago) link
he just needs to be convicted of the race charge to polish off a memorable season
― Djibril Citté (onimo), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:55 (twelve years ago) link
It's just about conceivable that he'll never play again. I'd like his career to decay a bit more visibly I think.
― Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:58 (twelve years ago) link
he'll deny it to the end
worse happens he gets two injury blighted seasons at the san siro on 7m a year

welp.
guardian says micah richards is out too? what's the logic behind putting phil 'not actually a right back' jones and glen 'glen johnson' johnson ahead of him?
― Merdeyeux, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:15 (twelve years ago) link
wait what is there a squad?
i'd assume, tbph, that k walker is ahead of either johnson or richards, and prolly jones too at rb?
― pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:31 (twelve years ago) link
ah shit, walker injured
johnson for me, the best attacking fullback out of the lot of them

johnson has been the first-choice. don't see that changing.

“I don’t remember Roberto Martínez holding a major conference when he left Everton,” he complained.
― r|t|c, Wednesday, 29 June 2016 07:57 (seven years ago) link
can't believe he actually said this in 2013.
Hodgson said: “I defy anybody to come up with 240 names. I don’t think, quitefrankly, you would be able to come up with 30 or 40.

danny murphy - there should be something in place so ex-players can skip coaching badges, it's too much trouble with too many hurdles in the way. I could have passed my 'b' license at 14, i knew it all at 12".

the same danny murphy who said england did really well in the group stages and that england would have no problem vs iceland or portugal.

5live's tuesday night england post mortem which lasts about 2 1/2 hours but murphy is just on for the first hour. scary stuff. lots of stuff about the fa not knowing football, how they should invite him and waddle in to 'teach' them etc etc

nah gotta be big sam. feels so close now. it will be the funniest shit ever.
btw that story that the fa favours big sam because he'll "mentor a successor" seems like classic stupidity. why would you appoint your favoured choice but demand they make a plan for who comes after they inevitably get sacked?
