The FA have made noises about a new manager having recent PL experience, regardless of nationality. Pellegrini?

I said it last night but I'd Keegan it if the FA could tempt Bilic away from WHAM.
Talk about double bubble (no pun intended). No way would he go for it.

I am disappointed in the countries ignorant racists.

I can find no evidence of Iceland stores being vandalised :(

(although perhaps they're pre-occupied abusing British citizens that aren't quite the right colour...)

There genuinely are people around who really would think that Iceland stores are owned by the country.

Iceland are famous for its fantastic training program for the boys even from very early age. Apparently it works. And you english have a little history of being "unlucky" in meetings with us norwegian/icelandic "vikings". If I don`t remember wrong, you didn`t qualify to WC in USA 94 due to Norway...

Seriously, you gotta do something with that national team of yours. After Brexit there might be some more opportunities of self-determination also when it comes to football? Lets say as a general rule there shouldn`t be a PL game without at least 10 british/english on the pitch. After all its your football league. But nowadays the owners are foreigners, many managers are foreigners, the players are foreigners, a large group of the supporters are foreigners (I feel guilty) and so on..

What`s english with Chelsea and Man City beside the fact that they are located in England? Take back control of PL!

And find a real coach next time. Honestly I think the whole Europe want to see a strong english side with guts. We miss you as a challenging team in the tournaments!

I think at the moment, most of Europe is enjoying our discomfort! Seriously though, the one thing that the guy from the FA got right yesterday was acknowledging that there isn't one single issue that is holding us back.
