Did someone mention Hoddle?

Hasn't managed for about ten years and was a disaster in that last job at Wolves. Not too mention the baggage

What baggage??

The bit where he said that disabled people were paying the price for bad things they must have done in a previous life.
And Diamond Lights

And the purple nylon golfing shirts he was wearing on ITV's Euros coverage.

And for saying "you have to put a bit of swazz on it" in his half-time analysis.

By 'dream' you mean 'nightmare', obviously.

Any team involving Sherwood in any capacity (beyond him being tarred and feathered) isn't a dream team. More like a nightmare.

In case anyone wants to, i've edited the poll so you can remove your vote and then vote again if you have changed your mind since voting.

He's got the easiest job in the world. They will piss the Mickey Mouse league and if he wins a couple of games in Europe he'll have exceeded expectation. Our job, after the England job, is probably the most poisoned chalice in football.

Ok so not Hoddle then. He's made mistakes, who hasn't? Provided he dosnt still hold reprehensible views or sings he's my choice. If not, I'd have a try for Gareth Southgate

I've learned not to give a fuck who we get. It either goes like it always goes, or it goes well. So what have we got to lose? And what can we do about it anyway?

Yeah, can't understand why no other club has snapped him up.

Southgate is just mental. Any fool will tell you that club management is totally different from international and he totally failed at middlesbrough

Even if there weren't all the listed crimes against Hoddle there's 2 massive reasons not to hire him. He's shit and hasn't managed for a decade. Mainly because he's shit.

Bielsa is available I think. Christ that would be my dream appointment.
