i think that's him above and to the left of the manager but tbh i stopped looking and started lolling once i spotted the bloke bottom right

bottom right bloke for england

hodgson, bob houghton, lennie lawrence and steve kember were all in the same class at grammar school in croydon

betcha didnt know that

you lose

bah

idk about you lot but after seeing all these woy pics spanning the ages i'm really kinda starting to confuse him with john pertwee era dr who

these pictures are making me happy :)

starting to confuse him with john pertwee era dr who

lol

Points per game before England job became available (8th February)
Spurs: 2.08
WBA: 1.08

Points per game from 8th February until Hodgson's appointment:
Spurs: 1.09
WBA: 1.67

Points per game since:
Spurs: 3.00
WBA: n/a

can we get a 'points per minute with lennon on the pitch'

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)

woy may have all the credentials in the world but imo he'll only have really proved himself if he bosses wba to a awesome destruction of bolton on saturday

really should have come into the england press conference with this blasting

i saw a young white person refer to an asian shopkeeper as ~bossman~ the other day

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

god you do realize every time a crappy barton type football player gets a 300% payrise for moving on a free, they will be referred to as BOSSMEN, ironically or otherwise, for ever after

yeah i've picked up the oi bossman cheers bossman habit myself tbh

what is it

mods don't see youtube clips embed, so to my delight this exchange was built around

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BP0OGmhb7c

which would make woy's press conference the best thing ever for me if it happened.

that's got to be the first grime emcee with a confederate flag decal

seriously, this guy's face is really something

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.

that wd already make him second best England manager ever

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.

he just needs to be convicted of the race charge to polish off a memorable season

It's just about conceivable that he'll never play again. I'd like his career to decay a bit more visibly I think.

he'll deny it to the end

worse happens he gets two injury blighted seasons at the san siro on 7m a year

the whole laughing at the nasty man getting comeuppance routine, apart from its generic pusallinimity, is kinda hollow when he retires to a big house in surrey full of hedge fund brochures and gilded furniture and behaves abominably for the rest of his pampered life

counterpoint

otm

terry is a retard

he probably looks like that when he runs out of jelly beans

the condition of a gilded age epl superstar is pretty much constant fulfillment blighted by occasionally disturbing interludes

I'll take what i can get. His failure to win the Champions League eats away at him i can assure you

so jermaine pennant gets a three year driving ban and has to trade in his 911 for a chauffeur driven maybach with a fridge full of krug so he doesn't have to spend a single moment of the offseason sober

oh man

rio stays home, ebjt to ukr

unless they're both going to be left out of the squad. seems unlikely obv.

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?

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?

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.

can't believe he actually said this in 2013.

Hodgson said: “I defy anybody to come up with 240 names. I don’t think, quite
frankly, 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.

where did he say this?

Why would you even be sceptical of that?

I'm not sceptical. I'd just like the context

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

the final hour is danny mills, neil ashton, and henry winter. imagine that.

Is Hoddle really the second favourite with the bookies?

Jurgen Klinsmann is “in discussion with England” and possesses the “courage” to resurrect the nation’s football fortunes, according to former Germany team-mate Oliver Bierhoff.

glad to see that the fa are asking for fergie's input into who should be the next england manager after it worked out so well for utd.

give it giggsy

klinsman plzzzzzzzzz

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?

The Big Sam must be built
