Great, so now we'll have the handicapped boycotting the games...although to Glen's logic, they should be made to stay and watch for their sins in their previous lives!

I remember Micky Adams' Sky Blue side playing Hoddle's Wolves off the pitch. Say no more...

Now, obviously it's pure speculation but in theory if it was true I actually think it would be good. He'd have the pulling power and I actually don't think he's that bad a manager, always rated him. I can't really remember what was said with the handicapped thing but I do seem to remember the media pulling it out of context and completely over-hyping it. He was very stupid to say anything but I really cannot stand the media circus that follow and hound England managers (and others).

Just to make sure I don't get hounded for these comments, I in no way agree with Hoddles views on religion!

i listened to the whole interview...

He mentioned he nearly came back to Engalnd to take the forest job, "but there were a couple of things that werent quite right"

I remember at the time thinking, ha, imagine if he got offered te Cov job, then he really would see a club where a couple of things are not quite right

I like his comment about how he enjoys being his own man. I think that rules him out.

My view on this is simple, he is so wrong but will think we are so right even though we are so wrong.

Did a very good job with England until the press hounded him out. However I dont think he would come here purely for the same reasons that no sane man would come here at the minute.

Didn't Hoddle say once something about Cov fans must all have been right bastards in a previous life and are now suffering for their sins?

He said people are born disabled for a reason, karma working from a past lifetime.

Pretty disrespectful imo.

But also his opinion of which he's entitled. Whether he should have aired this view is a different matter.

Nope, no sane man. He just could be the answer.
