I can see Harry dropping Spuds like a stone and jumping ship. Its just the sort of thing he'd do.

 
hahahahahaha, The special one to spurs? hhahahaha

Why in gods balls would he go there?

They have no money and base there whole club on a couple 'ok' seasons!!?!?!?

Real Madrid to spurs? hahahahahahah

What a farce on the FA's side, Absolute classic! Euros over(If they weren't already)

 
If Redknapp gets the job expect half of the spurs squad to suddenly get caps!!!!!

The thought of having Redknapp as England manager makes me sick, It will become a farce with the amount of spurs players etc etc that get picked and will defiantly bias towards so many joke factors I think it would turn into even more of a mess what with the old guard players etc.

But now that the old boy has walked I cannot see any other outcome.

Oh and terry can see bye bye to international footy, You can be sure saggy spurs face will drop him!!

Right. I wonder if Capello didn't have 2 reasons for quitting. One, he doesn't like being told what to do, never has. And two, he saw a divided dressing room with no hope of winning the trophy. Better to quit "on principle" than go out in a potentially embarassing fashion.

In a perfect world the press would reveal the identity of the clique of players who were in the FA's ear about John Terry. Then those players would have to account for stoning a man not yet convicted of a crime. And consequently, for ruining the Euros campaign.

Unfortunately, since one presumes they're all black, that would have the appearance of racism (at a minimum it would exacerbate racial tensions) so it won't ever happen.

 
I have nothing but respect for the man, he did what every person in his position should do.

Do you know what, I was just thinking today Fabio is really in it with JT. If any one in football is vilalfied more then JT its fabio. I thought it was disgusting what the papers did to him, the depictions and caracuters. I think i read one head line after spuds came back from 2 down to beat arsenral that reffered to redknapp as a winner everything Fabio wasnt.

Cappelo is currently in my eyes the best manager I have ever seen. He walks in to clubs effortlesly wins the title and then moves on, Milan, Juve, Roma, Real. titles with all of them.

England are a limited team with limited players. For me the quarter finals of a tornament was kind of the most i have expected. I think he has done well since the world cup and expected a decent run with out expecting to much in the euros.

He never stepped away because of the press. He did it when they told him he couldnt pick his captian. So he packed up his tent, stuck a finger up at the FA and walked of.

Well done Fabio. Enjoy your summer holls. And take extra glee when england fail

 
PS i am absaloutly desprate for a'rry to get the job and to the detriment of spuds

 
An intresting dilemma for the FA should they appoint Redknapp. They could either

Tell him you're paying him £10m a year, but never pay him. He won't notice!! He's like that

or

Pay him £2m a year, plus establish an 'investment fund' (entirely unrelated to work) in Monaco as friendship gesture

Well I think this is just the typical 'Exec' cok up! All these very wealthy posh boys (and girl) making decisions that are far beyond there abilities to please outside factors in order to keep the money etc flowing in.

They clearly didn't tell capello about dropping Terry on top of going over his head and he was seriously pi55ed about it, Like ANY manager worth there salt would.

What I find hilarious, Is that this is all to blame...ON THAT ONE QPR FAN!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its just an all round classic and embarrassment of uk politricks!

Would love to see Timmy Mallet just bash them all on the bonce and send them home!

No chance a seasoned pro like Capello would shirt at his last European Championships because his side isn't perfect.

He quit because of the FA goons acting like manager, simple as.

The only thing that is debatable is whether he would have quit if he had 3 years left on a contract - but the FA would've fired him then, as he wouldn't have altered his stance on the issue.

 
Capello's comments to italian media:

"They really insulted me and damaged my authority," Capello was quoted as saying by Italpresse. "What really hit me and forced me to take this decision was the fact the much-vaunted Anglo-Saxon sense of justice, as they are the first to claim that everyone is innocent until proven guilty.

"In Terry's case, they gravely offended me and damaged my authority at the head of the England side, effectively creating a problem for the squad.

"I have never tolerated certain crossing of lines, so it was easy for me to spot it and take my decision to leave."

I was trying to say that he'd have had a dressing room divided into hostile camps. JT is a popular captain. I imagine players who like him would have resented the players who got his armband taken away. A divided house will fall, that sort of thing.

 
I was quite shocked when I heard, but, on reflection, should have seen it coming. Good for Capello for standing firm and a big slap on the face of the cowardly FA. I fully suspect Harry will take over for the Euros, but unless he feels like retiring soon, I don't see him taking over full-time.

 
Good decision in my opinion. A completely ridiculous move from the English FA- what happens if French/Ukrainian/Swedish players claim racial abuse from every potential England captain from now to June? Innocent until proven guilty.

Also- Roman Roman sign him up! Will be boring as sh*t but we won't continue our slide to 8th

Wow just wow.

JT will be blamed. Although really the FA have screwed themselves especially if he is proven innocent.

The next manager would be wise to leave the golden generation chaps at home and start again. It would make things easier, reduce the pressure on the team and remove JT Rio and all the rest of it from debate.

 
Manager wanted, must have proven experience of being a yes man.

Form a queue now all you top managers.

Is there any other FA that would so undermine the national team 4 months before a major tournament?

The media wont accept what a jury says. I expect back pages to be devoted to outlining the difference between an acquittal and innocence.
