    Fabio Capello has resigned as England manager. What are the odds on Harry Redknap being offered the job now that he`s been cleared of tax fraud?

    Pearce in the interim, Redknapp after the match at the end of the month. I doubt they'll announce anything until after that.

    I'll have a word with Pearce when I see him next though and see what he says. Would like to see him stick with the under 21s, he's been a rock for the upcoming players and I think a strong foundation is what our national squad has needed for a while (among other things).

    Being a Welshman I hate to say this, but, Pearce coaching the youngsters under the tutelage of Redknap would be a very powerful management set up for England. It would also give the FA Redknaps successor when he decided to retire.:thumbsup:

    Fabio can afford to resign, it'll look good and righteous to a lot of people. I understand if Redknap is made Manager he wants to be paid in an overseas account.:heehee::D

    What good was Fabio anyway............when he was on the team he never scored even one goal!:happydance::DOH:

    It was an account he had forgotten about and was in his pet dog's names, it's an honest mistake, any one of us could easily have forgotten about having the odd £189k sloshing around :o


    He did do a pretty good Tommy Cooper impression though ...

      Fabio never understood the culture, you see, that was the problem. Never even mastered basic English phrases such as 'sick as a parrot', 'we was robbed' or 'the boys dun good'.

        Now, Redknap has possibilities. As he said recently, he can't spell and he writes like a two year old. As long as he continues to speak like one, he'll do fine. :dbgrtmb:

          Personally I admire Fabio for saying what he thought.

          The trouble is it dont fit in the PC UK, in Italy he would have got applauded. (just guessing).
          It was never a great idea to have an Italian as an England manager anyway, or a Swede come to think of it.:scratch:

            What was wrong with a Swede? We had a turnip once. (Graham Taylor).

              I totally disagree. Being an impartial observer ( yeah, right ) I would say he actually delivered several glorious own goals.:loll::loll::loll::cool::dbgrtmb:

                If England want to win anything in the near future, Pearce should not be involved, simply not good enough, as he has shown at club level, and how terrible the u-21s played in the summer, despite having Jones & Smalling as his two centre-backs, who should now be starting for the full team.

                  Harry Redknapp's trial for tax evasion highlights lack of transparency within football - Telegraph

                  snip:
                  “I can’t write, so I don’t keep anything. I’m the most disorganised person, and I’m ashamed to say, in the world. I can’t work a computer, I don’t know what an email is. I have never sent a fax, or a text message.”

                  Hmmm .... sounds like the right guy to be England's manager?

                    One thing we get with Redknapp : Good football.

                    So who'd rather lose playing terrible defensive football? I'd rather they lost giving it a go.

                    Having said that, I do not support England.. don't care who they appoint, tbh.
