proper fudged.

I could see the criticism coming, but didn't think it would come from Hughes of all people - guess he never wants the job    And Allardyce - that just seems petty.

I do understand that English is not even Capello's second language - that would concern me in the selection, but nothing else would.

Hughes jumped from English to British and back and back again.  Not too sure what he's saying.  Does England need an English manager or a British manager?

Allardyce is Allardyce.  I'm waiting on pins and needles for Redknapp to chime in.

I think you take this story, wrap it around the foreign players in EPL thing, throw in the failure to grow first-class stars at so many of the English academies and you get a sense of what they really want to say:

English football is *fudge*ed.  All scouts please report to the Iberia Airlines lounge immediately. 



[I disagree but let's not let that get in the way of an opportunity for sensationalist statements.]

England manager Fabio Capello has offered the Football Association the greatest assurance possible he will come through an in-depth tax investigation by the Italian authorities with his reputation unscathed.

Proper fudged is right. 

LMAO.

And Keegan just got the second toughest job in football (second only to the national team).  Good thing that fans love him, or I'd accuse him of being proper fudged.
