England won't get relegated from the World Cup - anticipate two years of The Big Sam delivering the international module here

I look forward to the Telegraph dramatically revealing a PL club was almost certainly bought with the proceeds of heroin trafficking shortly.

obv happy that allardyce sacked, not that igaf about england just for the sheer amusement but these telegraph revelations are such weak sauce. a couple of agents ran their mouths about 8 PREMIER LEAGUE!!! managers shock horror but nothing approaching proof, not even enough 'evidence' to name them. the way they and the rest of the media talk you'd think it was end of times not something that will be forgotten about by the time the next int. break is over.

ok who had hughes, warnock, and redknapp down?

aaaarrrrrrrghhhhhhhh

at a branch of Pret a Manger in west London, on August 25, Hasselbaink discussed terms as he sipped a cup of green tea

EXCLUSIVE CHINESE INCURSION INTO THE EFL

Meanwhile, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, the manager of Queens Park Rangers, another Championship side, was filmed agreeing to represent the same firm by flying to the Far East to talk to investors for £55,000 a time.

He appeared open to the idea of signing players owned by the firm, despite the possibility of a conflict of interest. He told undercover reporters posing as representatives of the company: “Give me a ----ing player. A good player.”

could i read the article please

nm i got it

have the FA sacked Allardyce on the basis of evidence that they don't currently believe is sufficient to remove any other manager?

just checking

yes, but tbh i actually do agree that the national manager isn't any other manager

just mourning my lost prince

Rooney in midfield and Lingard on the wing bcos, as Southgate put it "He's in a good moment with his form". Paddy Power offering 75/1 on a nil-nil, may lump on a few quid just for lols

Southgate is such a gentleman he's clearly establishing his "unfit for the job" credentials nice and early

nah, Rashford will come on and rescue it xpost

Lingard is a strange one. His supporters praise his "movement", which tbf is probably superior to most of the statuesque fuckers Utd have up front, but he regularly goes through entire games without having any direct positive influence. And then every ten games or so he'll pop up with something like the Cup final or Charity Shield goal.

Managers seem to like him because he does as he's told and runs around a lot, and Southgate obviously knows him well from the u-21s

So it would appear that England are still shite but, worry not, for, according to Tyldesley, 'two or three' of the goals Scotland scored against Malta were 'fortuitous'.

wish i'd watched this now, sounds funny

He should not expect a great deal of sympathy but in the grand scheme of managerial scandals it is certainly a few notches down from the passage in Joey Barton’s newly released autobiography about the “creative accounting” of one manager (though not one, he says, he ever played under) whose “speciality was making late substitutions on the understanding his assistant would later collect a percentage of the player’s match fee”. That manager, according to Barton, was infamous for giving homegrown players their debuts, sometimes just for a few minutes, so the academy director would collect a bonus, to be split again. The manager would re-sign players he had worked with at other clubs and take a cut from them, too – paid monthly, and invariably in cash.

I've heard rumours of this type around Warnock for years.

when he was at Town he fell out with the chairman over some misunderstood verbal agreement for him to have his own club merchandise shop in the town centre .. the bloody shameless grifter!

jason puncheon was fined 15k for publicly accusing him of the re-signed player racket, but homegrown debuts doesnt really check out - given maybe like five in the last decade iirc

also worth asking yourself what % of every substitution you've ever seen in your life was purely of sporting motivation - clubs paying less if they come on after 60 mins etc

Wayne Rooney has a massive bench coat on as he sidles up alongside Jamie Vardy in the dugout. He's having a laugh and a joke. He'll be hoping to have an effect from there.

he's supposed to be sitting at one end of the bench but he's moved to the middle.

kyle walker just hit the worst cross of all time

Hang on dude I've seen Theo Walcott play

Walcott hasn't walker's consistency

cue frantic phone calls to Bruce this morning before he takes the Villa job

Worst tweet since Piers Morgan on the day OBL bought it.

merciful god

his deflected shot saved us from losing at home to non-league daggers when we were premier league tho so he's a bit forgiven

Remembrance Sunday. Thank you for paying the Ultimate sacrifice for us. God Save The Queen.

Gets bodied in stan collymore's autobiog iirc
