So Paul Hartley has taken over as manager of Hartlepool, following in the footsteps of Arsene Wenger in running a club that partly shares his name. A couple of missed opportunities there - why did Ricky Villa never take charge at Aston Villa, or Brian Clough at Scunthorpe?

Jason Scotland still to fulfil his destiny.

Thailand down at 21 is bollocks.

Italy is #1 on any credible list though, so that's fine
The top spot is up for debate, but it's obviously there or thereabouts. Any large country with many climactic zones should be up there for diversity alone: China, Mexico, Iran, Turkey, India.

2013 John Hughes relegates Hartlepool, 2017 John Hughes relegates Raith Rovers, 2022 John Hughes relegates Dunfermline.

His media pals still think he's a good spud because he won a cup.

Italy wins hands down for diversity alone.

If Jocky Scott had become national team manager we'd have been World Champions... probably...

Pork. Lots of pork.

That list is obviously nonsense though.

During that horse meat scandal, I seem to remember that a lot of it seemed to have come from Romania, but that they don't eat a lot of it themselves.

A quick Google reveals that their most popular dishes include cabbage rolls, beef tripe soup, and something called beef salad. Doesn't it look tasty?

Only a matter of time before Scotland Gemmill gets the job.

Relegating Fife clubs doesn't count, though.

Watching Das Boot on Sky atm, and having decided that U Boats appear more perilous places to be than I had assumed, googled it and found out an enormous number of them were wiped out by the Allies.

I had sort of thought that U boat hunting in them days was a bit of pot luck, and that they would have been the safest option if you had to be in the Navy.
