Just wondering what folk think of Roy leaving Mr wobbly lips out? The press seem to be making a massive issue out of it when in my opinion I think he's made the right call (but I am slightly biased;).

 

If this was an Italian coach, say, i'm sure we'd praise him for being direct and decisive and trying to keep the dressing room spirit intact. He's been very unlucky with Cahill's injury although im not sure the scouser was the way forward. Saying that, it's planning for the future i suppose.

 

The press here really wind me up, They seem to do all they can to unsettle the squad time and time again.

 

Apologies if this is discussed elsewhere, had a quick scan and couldn't see it.

Fuck the flappy lipped croc cunt.

fuckin winding me up all this race bollocks

 

fact is, is that rio just aint good enough anymore

 

if hodgson was racist half the team wouldnt be there so why dont they all just fuck off and let him do his job

If Terry wasn't currently awaiting a court case for allegedly racially abusing his brother, then Ferdinand would be in the squad.

 

IMO though, and because of this situation, it was always going to be either Terry OR Ferdinand. - never both.

 

Hodgson chose Terry. Personally I've no problem with it.

Yep pretty much my thoughts as well

See that's the only bit i'm not sure about. I read old Joey Holts nose said he shouldn't be picked due to recovery time and i'd like to think that's the reason why. Like you say though Daz both of them going was never really an option so it does cast a doubt. Personally I think Roy dealt with it very well and made the right call. Pleasantly surprised by the back bone he (the FA?!) showed.

You do know though, that if Terry's found guilty, the FA will have to endure a shitstorm so large that even Steve McLaren's brolly wouldn't be enough.

i dont care if he made 30 appearances or not last season, fact is he cant play so many games is such a short amount of time, he ain't going he needs to get over it, this would be his last ever tournament and Hodgson is building for the future so why not use the future.

 

if the england manager picks all the older players he gets slated for not giving the chances to youth or to people on merit, if he doesn't and sticks to his guns, hes seen as deluded and holding a grudge, poison fuckin chalice, and its a wonder why we underachieve so much

Very true! Sol Campbell said he'd give his caps back if it turns out to be because of race. . .

I bet you love saying that now youve left!

 

When I heard Rio was out 3 days after whiskey nose saying he couldnt play games 3 days after each other I never thought it had owt to do with the race case.

 

I was more surprised that he still had most of the old guard still in the squad. Hopefully come the world cup in Brazil we'll have a young squad and we'll be playing like...Brazil!

He's behaving like a spoilt brat.

 

I really do hope we do well & he shuts up!

His Agent is being a complete twat now piping up that the shithouse was told he wasn't being picked in a 'disrespectful way'. Just who the hell does he think he is..

Before the squad was picked both Ferdinand & Terry said that they wouldn't go if the other was picked. This didn't change just because Cahill got injured.

If only Anton had just shook JT's hand this wouldn't be an issue now..

But to be fair, that would of helped..

Has he been offered an extension at the scum or has he been released yet?
