I can't see the point of it.A manager is only as good as his players.He had some of the best players in the world leading up to 2003 world cup.Who he wants back, are the likes of Jonno (Martin Johnson),Billy Whiz(Jason Robinson),Jason Leonard,and Lally(Laurence Dalaglio)to name but a few.Once they all started leaving,it all started to go wrong. England also has a massive injury list.Hopefully Lally, will be fit again soon,though I somehow fear that Wilko's international career is over.

No way Jose. Giving Clive his old job back would be like handing a depressive a loaded gun and winking seductively. Firstly, England needs to decide which is more important, a solid club scene, or a powerful national team. After they settle that dilema, they can move on to giving Robinson his walking papers and looking for a new boss. Finally, once the first two have been squared away, England needs to stop trolling the retirement centers for players who were good ages ago. Sorry Wilko but you're just too old and broken to be playing test rugby. England has the most money and viable players, they can certainly scrounge up some new boys to put in white.

Yes England yet again were awful yesterday even though they scraped a win.England with this side under the present Captain and Coach have no chance at the World cup.

I liked him but gerald has got it right. We're missing the players we need.
Tim Rodber, Ben Clarke, Jason leonard, Martin Bayfield, ahh the good old days!!

No - but they should decide pronto if they are keeping Robinson or getting rid....only 10 months to the cup.
England's chances look slim either way at this stage.

No,whats he got to prove,i'm certain he wouldn't take anyway. Would the present team be any better if he did?A coach can only play the best players he's got available.

He was lucky to have a good squad and great captain.
He failed with the British lions tour and he will fail with the current England squad because they lack quality....

WHAT! After the shambolic Lions tour, you have to say no!
I don't think it was him that that won the world cup, it was more to with Martin Johnson's inspiration and the Wilko's boot!
