Sol Campbell wants to be one of the greatest British managers ever

[jay2040]

Well QPR fans don’t need to be worried, he has to get past the interview first. Can you imagine his answers to the interview questions.

Maybe he will deny the alleged relationship with Lennox Lewis!

 

[DJS]

You'd think there could be nothing worse than being a QPR fan and reading this paragraph...

Sol Campbell has emerged as a leading contender for the vacant manager’s job at Queens Park Rangers, TalkSport understands. Ex-England defender Campbell, a former Tottenham and Three Lions teammate of Rangers’ director of football Les Ferdinand, is set to be interviewed about succeeding Mark Warburton.

I mean, yeah, it's obviously horrendous news, but he's on a shortlist, yeah. I mean, there must be, what, three or four to be interviewed. Surely, they'll go for someone with top flight experience.

And then you read this paragraph...

The Hoops have already spoken to MK Dons head coach Liam Manning and Newport County’s James Rowberry while another of Ferdinand’s ex-colleagues, Tim Sherwood, is also on their shortlist.

Hell's teeth.

I mean, that has to be right up there with Clinton-Trump for the worst shortlist in history.

Obviously, we're not QPR fans. But, if you do know any, reach out to them tonight, give them a hug and buy them a pint. They'll need it if they've read that article...

Imagine if they appointer them joint managers or made Sol manager and Timmy his assistant! ??

He forgot the most important reason : he’s an insufferable twat.

So, Sol, why do you think you should be a knight of the realm?

Reason number 2: 'Invincible Arsenal team 49 games without losing a record'

Yeah, but it's not like you played every game, and there were all those Cup games you lost, and who was the idiot who gave away the penalty that saw the 49-game run end? Foul on Wayne Rooney. Ring a bell?

Reason number 3: 'First black player to score in World Cup Final for England'.

Err, well, yes, that didn't happen, did it?

Reason number 5: 'First black English speaking player to score in a Champions League final'.

You do know that Marcel Desailly can speak English, don't you. He didn't spend six years at Chelsea going 'Mais qu'est-ce que vous dites?' at John Terry.

Reason number 7: 'Stood up for racism in football here and abroad'.

I really, really don't know where to go with that. You know, there are some people who think the reason you don't get managerial work is because you're really poor at putting your point across, which is, like, kind of a pre-requisite for a manager. So, are they right? Or did you really stand up for racism in football here and abroad?

Without opening the link I will assume there is no mention of the word Loyalty In any of his reasons???

Reason 24: Would have been England captain for 10yrs if…

 

[rossdapep]

I remember that video of him speaking in third person that time, the guy definitely has some mental issue.

 

[Stamford]

Genuinely think he's not well

 

[Houdini]

He wrote that letter with more than a little help from David Beckham.

 

[Japhet]

Could be the first honour for 'Services to Bellendishness'.

"actually sod it, give it to Ledley - he was better than me anyway"

 

[thecook]

Ah bless his little cotton socks. Now take this and fuck off

 

[hughy]

Can't think why no clubs want to take a punt on him as manager.

Mindboggling.

In terms of the scoring in a World Cup final, I think he meant he scored in a World Cup tournament, just phrased it wrongly, probably someone else’s fault as wouldn’t be Sol’s.

Poor Sol. He just wants to be loved and given the platitudes his career earned him!

Darn establishment!


(disclaimer: they may be some sarcasm in last two sentences for those who are slow to pick up on that).

A lot of people say World Cup Finals when they mean tournament, which is a phrase I don't like to use but that's probably where the confusion comes from, either through him omitting an s when he spoke or through a bad transcript.

Isn’t his missus the heiress to Barrett homes? You’d think a nice fat cheque would get him an MBE, at least a seat in the House of Lords.

 

[max cady]

Think it is disgraceful that he has asked the monarchy for any type of award when there are thousands that are more worthy and just carry on doing their job. Is there no end to this prat. What I find interesting is that he thinks he’s entitled and that my friends is a dangerous recipe. He can go feck himself.
