This will be a disaster and a decent man will be destroyed by the media when he fails - as he will do. At least with 'Arry there would have been some decent football. England aren't going to win anything, if we're going to lose let's lose in style.

He'll probably £#%&! it off when the FA tell him the players he must pick for the squad and the players that must get a start in every match, after all they've got their sponsors, marketing and merchandising to think of.

I bet Arry's twitch tastic tonight. I'm sure he thought he was a home banker.

The FA in let's choose the option whose club we won't have to pay compensation to, shocker. Hodgson's not a bad choice, but the people wanted 'Arry and they should have got him IMHO.

Great appointment, top manager and top guy(met him many times).

Lok, at his age he hasn't got much to lose. He'd be mad to turn it down. England are gonna have a national team to be proud of again

what about wellbeck.....

A few weeks ago one of the Custis brothers was on Sky Sports News early in the morning doing their paper round up, and when pressed over why Redknapp was the best choice it came down to how he made the press job easier by giving them good quotes.

Liverpool fans hate Hodgson because there was no hostility towards Fergie and Utd. Liverpool were not a football club under Gillette and Hicks(whatever than means) but Hodgson gets no sympathy for that.

very well welease wellbeck

I wonder if anybody laid Arry on the exchanges.

I wonder if any big bets were taken.

I've got to say, it would be pretty funny if Roy did a Hoddle/Gascoigne on Gerrard like the '98 World Cup.

He's managed across Europe and has the same players available as 'Arry would have. Up and at 'em doesn't work that well at International Level.

Great appointment, it's just a shame the press will be ripping him to pieces in a few weeks.

Very good manager.

The way he was forced out of the Liverpool job is another example of how clueless the verminous bin-dipping @#%&!s are.

I'm sorry, but I've never seen a Hodgson side that played more attractive football than one of 'Arry's sides. Hodgson is about his teams keeping a strict shape and making games tight. I'm no fan of 'Arry, but at least the football would have been better.

I'm not anti-Hodgson. Good luck to him. I just fear this is a bad appointment and will only result in Roy having his face merged with a Brussels Sprout and becoming a new internet meme.
