So - he's gone.

I know Terry hasn't been convicted yet but I think I'd have sacked him from the captaincy too. In fact he's arguably had such a negative effect on the team that he perhaps should have been dropped entirely. The fact that Capello's sacked and reinstated him once rather left him with nowhere to go if he felt he'd been undermined, I suppose.

I'm just glad Rooney's suspended for the first two matches of the Euros so he can't be considered.

And will Redknapp dump Spurs to take the job now?

Who will replace him?

It would seem there's little doubt then.

Capello was right to resign- he is financially secure for life and the FA were going over his head. He may only know 100 words  of English, but can anyone make a silk purse from the sow's ear of lazy overpaid, technically second-rate footballers crowded out of their teams by better forein players? I doubt it.

Thumb print on the dotted line, 'Arry?

I love the big football campaigns. Crown Courts, the media, Planet Football.

Terry I think the FA were correct. Capello had no option but to resign. Really with the alledged allegations then a suspension of the captaincy is correct.

Our Arry R. Has admitted he can hardly read or write, know what an e-mail is and has never sent a text in his life.

He sounds just a little unsophisticated for Planet Football and England Manager. 

Bring back Sven, he knew about opera, slick and charming. And fantastic entertainment.

I just can't see Harry handling the world stage.

I agree-  I liked Sven too. He got England to two quarter finals , losing only to the lottery of penalties. He introduced new techniques of preparation , including sport psychologists, and spotted Rooney's talent before Alex Ferguson. I think a foreigner who has been round the block of Champions League football would be better than Arthur Daley- Redknapp fresh from his court case
