Football-idiots in charge.

Who organised this international friendly days before the season starts right aftre a busy world cup year. I mean seriously what is the point. Players/managers are taking the piss out of Capello. (See Carrick on Sunday and the players retiring) We will see squad players play 45 minutes, "star" players play at 50%, one of these star players picking up an injury, oh and the fans that do go will be hurling abuse at players low on confidence as it is. Away from England even Trappatoni has been taken to hospital sick with disgust.

well there is qualifiers soon and after a shocking world cup(england if you didnt know, rest of the world i dont care about) team play might help, stress the might. as for people "retiring" robbinson dosnt get picked and will anyone miss wes brown? carragher is past his best and lost any pace he once had. oh and heskey retired too didnt he? im sure we will miss the jokes. the carrick thing i would suggest ferfuson had a bigger say in that than carrick.

"Idiots in charge of Idiots" would of been more appropriate m8tey, I think the F.A knows exactly whats needed to turnaround the fortunes of English Football. But it will never happen because the greedy gits cant get enough of your money, who cares if the players are exhausted..? The F.A will run them into the ground with as many money making matches as possible and thats our downfall. We need an English manager not someone that the rest of the world can take the mickey out of and lets face it he even looks like tommy cooper. We need to approach these big tournaments with a fresher outlook and fresh players thats raring to go. Theres no better support anywhere else in the world when it comes to supporting England and its time they were rewarded.

They earn millions a year I would make them play every day if I could. 38games a season they play on average for around £676,000 with a lot getting a lot more.

Im damn sure I could play the friendlies if they were paying me that much.

[daddyspoon]

they dont get paid for playing for the country do they?
