would love it to be Klopp, but I'm in the camp where the manager should be English I think 

If Klopp isn't lined up for Germany then I'm not sure where I see him at club level, so maybe it's a possibility 

Pep maybe more likely, as he's said he'll never manage Spain 

Who knows

I want klopp so badly. The amount of turmoil amongst the cult would be amazing.

As I said, pure ignorance. It started off as support for BLM, but pretty quickly changed to a purely Anti-Discrimination gesture.

So when Evatt and the players first took the knee it was BLM. As you well know.

You’ve gone on a tangent bringing up Evatt and Bolton players saying they took the knee against racism. They didn’t at first they took it in support of BLM, which some may see as a political aspect 👍

So when Evatt and the players were taking the knee for BLM that could be seen as a political aspect couldnt it? What aren’t you getting here? Why are you even bringing Evatt and Bolton into it?

Unfortunately that doesn’t win you trophies. Which is what he was paid to do 

aye, but a lot of folk are judging him based on what goes on off the pitch, as opposed to on it

too many people calling him wokegate etc and hoping he isn't successful because of all that shite

all pretty irrelevant really

two finals, a semi and a qf but with some questionable tatical approaches that left us ruing what could've been

on to the next one

All explained above. Don't get so worked up Royal. I'm sure @Tonge moor green jacket can answer for himself.

Ah right. 

Well I'll take my view from what I witnesed.

Human rights, taking knee, lgbtq blah blah blah.

A reasoned response to a few fuckwits on social media? Nah, a response to various American thought imports; not just from him. 

But, maybe I just dreamt it all- that's the only way I can I can conceive that I don't have a clue.

Or maybe it's a typical response to anyone who expresses a view to the contrary- just issue insults and criticisms. "They're all thick, racist.. and on it goes". Self aggrandising snobbery.

 

Eh

Southgate didn’t start the campaign. He just showed solidarity with his players & defended their right to make a point. 

What would you have done in that situation?

 And I’m not really arsed regarding the insults. I stand by the point that it is quite daft if you believe that’s what held the team back.

Everyone still sings the iconic “Three Lions” song from Euro 96’ and possibly always will. 

It’s staggering to think that it was nearly 30 years ago now and England have still not won anything since.

It will have been “60 years of hurt” by the next WC in 2026.

That is a really sobering stat.

Summed up by "people who don't have a clue". Superiority complex. Astounding as he lives in fucking Scotland!

Witnessed GS being a decent human being. 

Amazing how uncomfortable he made so many.

A matter of opinion. You think he's a decent human being, I think he's an arrogant cunt who dismisses anyone who does not view the world in the same way he is instructed to as being "on the losing side".

There's a few on here of the same ilk. "Quick, let's shout 'racist', that will shut down all discussion".

You are easily amazed. Didn't make me uncomfortable apart from in lacking focus on the job he was being paid handsomely to do and wading knee deep in peripheral virtue signalling bollocks rather than 100% on the football. Don't give me 98% or 99% football claims. The great BSA knew that the fractions of a percent at the top level were always likely to be decisive.

Tactically fucking awful - never more apparent than Wembley 2020. Good fucking riddance.

Well he told you what he witnessed then you go and ask him what he witnessed??? It’s there in black and white. It’s not normal but expected from the resident moon man 

You sir, have the resilience of a warrior. I can see why they hired you.

How you can continue to engage with that contrarian fucktard is beyond me. I dips me lid :hi:

Hes a fucking hypocrite

Ran away from immigrants by being an immigrant

How fucking ironic coming from you.

You have special powers. Use them.

Earth Father knows full well what I am on about. Arrogance yet again. He's from the tribe who block roads and glue themselves to trains and planes. Rather than listen to the likes of him, it would be much more productive to be aiming the water cannon.

Southgate “arrogant”? You could ask 100 people to use 1 word to describe him and only if they asked you would that word come up.

Southgate is probably the antithesis of arrogant.
