Capello Resigns

I bet Harry's court case outcome had a lot to do with it!

The English FA, bunch of phuquewits who wouldn't know a football if it was rammed up their tight bottoms. Thats England screwed for the Euros and doubly so if they employ "Arry 'Second Hand Car Salesman' Redknapp"

Like it makes any difference to our overall chances of winning the competition.

For some reason, the FA seem to think that we need someone English to manage the team, because only someone English can understand the English game.

Unfortunately, they haven't realised that the English game gets constantly trounced by the European game or the World game. And that you might want the best manager to manage the team, regardless of nationality.

Put his head on the block for his captain and wasn't bluffing. Respect.
Does resigning also mean he doesn't get all the cash he'd be due if he was fired? If so, even more respect.

Maybe Chelsea could hire him.

As for Redknapp - if he'd drop the club he's spend years building up, which is on the brink of challenging the big boys - then he's a fool.

What about that guy who is doing the under 21 (and the GB Olympics team IIRC)?

He really took Team England for suckers - should have been fired right after world cup but managed to hang on with his crazy salary and resigned just months before new tournament due to start

It is unlikely to be helping to have a foreigner who can't speak English properly.

Stuart Pearce? Probably a future England manager, but maybe not yet.

Fabio Capello resigns from the England job?

An Italian abandoning a sinking ship, who would have thought it?

Yeah he would not be due any cash, but as he only had 5 months on his contract he's not walking away form much.

I agree Redknapp won't quit Spurs for the England job, he's on too much of a good thing at Spurs, national job mean no transfer fee's to skim

Stuart Pearce is the current under 21 boss, he's not upto stepping up to the big league though.
