Football 2011-2012

But it was not a payment... It was a gift... So it's not the same... Everyone commentingn on the trial says the prosecution had a weak case. Not just the jury.

I never said what you say... You either can't read or you are twisting...

Football politics have been far more interesting than the actual football this season.

Just what I reckon, but I think Capello has jumped at the chance to leave on his terms and ride away on his high horse.

Agreed, I bet he is getting a decent pay off as well. I think its a pragmatic decision, he probably knows what media expectation will be once the tournament starts and knows on the balance of probability he will fall short. Hey Sven got a load of abuse and did an amazing job at england, I always got the impression that svens heart was in the job, never felt the same with capello. He was always in it for the chance to get a lot of money for little work and I think he has now decided the stress just isnt worth it.

[pink_triangle]

He has resigned so nope...

[The Nal]

Would you mind him as a future replacement for trapatoni though, I would swap him for coleman without thinking.

Just heard them say on talksport that they think he probably got a pay off...

Usally if someone resigns there is nothing to pay up... Clearly not "resigned" then...

I imagine Talksport probably resembles a bunch of monkeys at the zoo at the moment, with "speak English" and "foreign rubbish" making up most of the noise

Rooney has come out in favour for Redknapp....

His true feelings or United hoping to stop the Tottenham charge ?

I think that's a bit harsh. Capello's done a reasonable job - Sven wouldn't have got past Germany - and I've felt the losses have hurt him, he's just not as outwardly emotional so it doesn't show.

I think he's felt his authority has been undermined, rather than that it isn't worth it,

[Ed209]

Just had a thought. Imagine if today's events had been switched and the Jury acquitted Harry after Capello had quit. That would have been interesting

[pink_triangle]

You can't ignore Tottenham are a rising force under his leadership... They are doing great...

[Alcatraz]

The only man for the job

FA should go get Mourinho but it'll never happen

[strummer77]

I think England should be managed by an Englishman. Not because they're the 'best' candidates, but purely because that's the point of International football. In fact I think it should be a rule that your coach could qualify to play for you.

Bloody hell... Look at his win percentages!! Makes Fergie look shit

Still amazing, even if he is a complete tosser.

You don't mind classless little nobs playing for you, so why different with managers?

(sorry, just stiring )

Oh and Roy Keane on Rooney's comments:

"Wayne should keep his nose out of it, he didn't do enough on the pitch when Capello was mgr."
