English Football

I believe it would be good for the England team to have a black manager because this would create political and social harmony throughout our nations. The FA have been accused of racism in the past, and if they were to consider a black manager for the post it would be timely for the next World Cup in South Africa. We all know the racial history of that country and the imprisoning of Nelson Mandela. It would also give the FA better credence when dealing with other matters relating to football clubs.

Is it just me or is the england national team seriously overatted england are not a great team simple. Sven was sacked because he couldnt get england beyond the quater finals but come on it was england. I admit Mclaren had to go but i fear that no manager would want to take over a team with unrealisticly high expectations with overratted players like crouch, lampard and BECKHAM.

After this week's performance when will England being rubbish at sports in general, but particularly the beloved national game of football? Yeah, sure there are flashes in the pan but generally they are rubbish. This year we have seen England lose in the RWC final, England not qualify for Euro 2008, an Englishman not win Wimbledon yet again, Lewis Hamilton not take the World Title.... etc
Is it not time, 41 years after 1966 and all that and 30 years (?) after Wimbledon success, and only two ashes series in 20 odd years plus one RWC in 20 years...... that they wake up? The policy of sport for all, non-competitiveness at school etc etc makes me think the English do not have a "killer/winner" instinct.... Added to this, 60% of the Premier League is not English and no one wants to be England manager, the most likely candidate being an Italian who cannot speak English..... sorry days for England! Any thoughts?
PS I am not a gloating Scot or Aussie, I am just trying to be objective!!!

HIS & HERS DIARY

HERS;
Wednesday 21st November ......Page 1...........

He was really quiet tonight.
Very subdued, just not himself.
Something was wrong, he hasn`t kissed me all night.
He didn`t even looked in my direction!
I think it`s another woman.
I went to bed and cried.
He followed me up later.
I cuddled up to him and stroked his hair.
He lay still.
Eventually we made love.
Then we fell asleep in each others arms.





His;
England lost.
f*cking gutted!
Got a shag though.

After being knocked out of World Cup '06, Beckham and coach Erikson seemed to be blamed most for the loss. The management seemed to want to get rid of that "Swedish coach" and the "old poster boy".

In my opinion, it was a big mistake. Erikson was a fine coach and always got England far into the tournaments. And Beckham is the spiritual leader and "face" of England, even though he may be a little old and injured.

What do you guys think? Was new coach Mclaren and new captain Gerrard to blame for their not making to Euro 2008? In general, the team played very well (lots of 3-0 victories) but was just unable to make it. Bad luck? Or bad management?

If you notice, people that dont like Cristiano for SURE likes Lionel Messi, a nasty 5 foot tall argentine leprochuan with long unwashed hair. The reason for that is Lionel Messi makes you feel good about yourself just like Wayne Rooney, its like 'their rich and good but THEY ARE UGLY' so you feel a bit taller(literally, since its rooney and messi) But with Cristiano its like heres this 6'1 model looking pretty boy that belongs on a runway but is destroying all these 'MANLY athletes' you dont feel so good. Just like the way people use to hate becks when he was with man Utd, cuz he was goldenballs and you know he makes your girl wet. Now Cristiano is simply Becks with step overs and more goal scoring abilities. And no its not the reason he plays for Man Utd, Cristiano can play for Barca or Real, the hate will continue because of his looks.

...and now that just about every manager worth having is turning down the job, are England in dire straits with regard to the World Cup of '10 ? Also... does England find itself in the unenviable position that they need to realise that, unless English players can play football, no manager, however good, can take England to football sporting height unless also English players learn how to win matches without foreign players help ?! Do you think these are crucial question that need to be addressed ? Hiring people like Trevor Brooking will only bring back a repetition of Kevin Keegan as manager when he resigned after losing 3-2 to Portugal.
What do you think ? Thanks...

The FA was looking for a replacement for Steve McClaren following his sacking. Brian Barwick put a sign in the window, stating the following: "HELP WANTED. Must be able to type, must be good with a computer and must be bilingual. We are an Equal Opportunity Employer."

A short time afterwards, a dog trotted up to the window, saw the sign and went inside. He looked at the receptionist and wagged his tail, then walked over to the sign, looked at it and whined.

Getting the idea, the receptionist got Barwick. He looked at the dog and was surprised, to say the least. However, the dog looked determined, so he lead him into the office. Inside, the dog jumped up on the chair and stared at Barwick.

Barwick said "I can't hire you. The sign says you have to be able to type." The dog jumped down, went to the typewriter and proceeded to type out a perfect letter. He took out the page and trotted over to Barwick and gave it to him, then jumped back on the chair.

since the majority of you think you have a devine right to qualify for every major tournament. wouldn't it be better if you get fifa,uefa to give you special dispensation, and an automatic bye into the final, and then the rest of the teams play in a competition, and whoever wins that, plays you for the title.

it would solve an awful lot of problems ???

I know that we have been somewhat poor and that radical changes have to be made, but lets start looking towards the future. Hopefully the new manager (whoever that is) will have the courage and foresight to make radical changes to the team and the FA will do something to stop the flood of foreign players that reduce the pool of talent we have to pick from.
We have been great before and can be again!
