Subject: RE: BS: Should England have a new Football Manager?
Hi
I go with the keep Capello vote.
Of course there were problems this year at the finals but as someone has originally said he turned England around after some of the most humiliating performances ever in the Euro 2008 series.
Please note that was with an ENGLISH manager who was so inept that he inherited the name of The Wally with the Brolly during England's ignominious exit as he stood there in the rain under a large golf umbrella watching haplessly.
Apparently Capello wants to stay and repair the damage when it would be easy to walk away - it's not money....he is already a very rich man and he would receive millions purely by walking away.
I don't see any other English managers who are capable of replacing Capello with the possible exception of Rednapp who is tied up to Spurs. Roy Hodgson has signed a three year contract for Liverpool which leaves us with what ?????????? NOTHING.
So we would be stupid to throw out the baby with bathwater.
It would cost less and be more practical to set up a team to try to bring the FA and The Premier League closer together in order to try to provide the England team with more time and resources when playing International games especially in competitions.
