Ira Gaines Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I'm not buying the "not that bad" stuff here. Saying that we all knew he was a crook is completely irrelevant. It's now pretty much confirmed, and with that news, he needs to be punted. The English FA, with the stances they've tried to take, cannot have a known crook as the manager of the national team. Especially after it's their own rules he's making such a mockery of. If they DO keep him on then they're absolute mugs that deserve every bit of pointing and laughing that comes their way.

Football is absolutely full of hypocrites at just about every level and no one will bat much of an eyelid if the FA keep him on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 8 more managers have been caught in the sting with the names due to come out over the week. Sky have the names but for legal reasons can't reveal them but 6 are British and 2 foreign. Is Redknapp's dog British or foreign? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babu Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Football began it's journey down the slippery slope the day that we sold our club jerseys to sponsors.. & we don’t have far to look at the vested interests - up this neck of the woods & the overpaid , incompetent executives etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Did ssn say two of the 6 English mgrs are former international mgrs?

The Sun touting Alan Pardew is hilarious, seeing as he is comfortably the sleaziest man on Earth as much as I love him. You don't manage West Ham when Tevez and Mascherano were there and Newcastle under Mike Ashley without having a mass grave in his closet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the 6 English managers could include Hodgson, McClaren, Hoddle and Redknapp. There are only a few English managers in the EPL - Pardew, Howe, Dyche and Phelan. This could be one of the craziest weeks in English football history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 The Football Manager Real Football Forum is usually a good read, as it seems to be mostly full of people who would nod sagely as they read their copy of the Daily Mail. Also mostly full of England fans, as you'd expect. They're almost exclusively furious at this, including one saying that what Sam's done is "loads worse than what Hoddle did" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7-2 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 More interesting would be trying to suss out the one manager that walked out on the journos half way through as he'd figured out it was a con. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go for Moyes. I think that given his years involved in English football, he'd certainly be targetted and I also think that he'd be pretty clean and not fall for this sort of shite.

I'll go for Pardew, Redknapp, Pulis, Mark Hughes, Neil Warnock, Iain Holloway, Michael Laudrup and Ronald Koeman. Yes. Pulls and Hughes are Welsh.

harry94 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Assuming the 8 are not necessarily in work or currently in the Premier League, my guess is Nigel Pearson (I think the above post is probably correct) Malky Mackay Tony Pulis Harry Redknapp Ian Holloway Alan Pardew Michael Laudrup Avram Grant Bonus - Moyes walked out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
