Maybe hiring mangers is not as easy as we think!! ..... :o

It doesn't surprise me in this age of obscene totals of money splashing about at the top level of the game.
Bagpuss will be mortified this morning when he wakes up.
Please please not Glen Hoddle.

If someone who earns £250,000 a MONTH is stupid enough to jeopardise a job he's waited until he's in his 60's to get for a few hundred thousand quid. For dealing with people he's neither checked out or has any idea who they are. Then he hasn't got the common sense or integrity to manage England.And I'd say sadly the first attribute is more important than the second in today's modern game.

and it just shows how low the press can go just to get a story.

Disagree I'm afraid. At interview he will have been asked how he would uphold the reputation of both 'the game' and his employers, the FA. Consider this event as his 'practical'. He failed. Clearly the word in the football world must have been Sam's 'up for a bung'. All the Telegraph did was test the theory.

My feelings exactly. Although it doesn't feel like good journalism, it does provide a disincentive for people in public positions to know that the media (and presumably whistleblowers) are a very real threat to their status quo, and hence provide an incentive to behave in an honest capacity. Obviously not incentive enough in this case

My feelings too

Footballs completely corrupt at all levels. Its because we, the punters, throw so much hard earned money at it. There's literally millions of pounds to be mopped up in the game, and its anyones for the taking.
Its no surprise to any sports journalist that big Sam was at it. The real story is behind why they decided to target him now, because they could have done this to any top manager at any time. Its not just because he's England manager, there's probably more to why they went after him.

Not really arsed about England, but Hoddle is a no no as far as I am concerned too.

100%
Everybody knew that Allardyce was bent, and if the people in charge at the FA say they didn't then I would question their fitness to hold their position. Having said that I agreed with their decision to make him England manager as he was the obvious/only choice, nobody could really have seen him being as stupid as this within days of being appointed

I have no problem with Big Sam getting stung, but I do have a problem with the approach. If that approach was adopted liberally right across the board I would have no problem with it, but newspapers and more importantly their owners have their own political agendas and they will attack some, whilst bending the truth beyond breaking point for others.
Sh*t rags, the lot of them.

I agree, you can't just target Big Sam, you'd have to have also tried it with previous England managers.
Oh.
-
They might just as well give the job to Mark Ward.

I wasn't just referring to England managers.....it was more a general comment on the pathetic nature of the press in general.
