Barry Fry never managed a club bigger than Birmingham, so lets not take him too seriously.

Someone should explain to Barry Fry that missing your sons wedding for a friendly is the definition of commitment.

Woah! Easy! He managed my beloved Southend United who are by far the greatest team the World has ever seen.

According to some guy on off the ball, he was interviewed before and couldn't pick out a "power play" on some football tactic computer program so he was ruled out.

This is really intriguing, anybody know anything about it? I would love to see what the FA program says are good and bad tactics. I bet it's hilarious.

'arry has to take the position or else the English media will make it out that he turned his back on England. I saw the Barry Fry on SSN; priceless, and he claimed that all the Boro and Sunderland could not play proper football for 40 minutes because they were thinking about Capello leaving.

The guy is a moron but you have misread that one I think. He was probably referring to himself not being able to concentrate on the match because of the big news.

I think all footballers should be banned from using twitter.The comments from certain players last night after the news broke about capello resigning were disgraceful.The man wasnt even gone 5 mins and to hear rooney saying he was a great manager and will be missed but now its time for harry Redknapp to takeover in the hotseat.Usual english arrogance and ignorance,only thinking of themselves!!!!!

Nice generalisation there.

You realise Capello resigned? He didn't fúcking die!! I don't see anything wrong with players expressing an opinion, even on twitter, so long as they're not acting like a tool.

Has there been any backlash to Frys comments

Bottom line he was the manager and should of been consulted on this very important issue of taking the captaincy from JT.plain and simple.
A lot of these players need to keep their mouths shut and concentrate on playing football especially the likes of rooney who is the perfect role model :rolleyes:

I just dont agree about how quick there were to say get harry redknapp in as manager when capello was only after leaving.

What's the official time a player should wait before expressing an opinion?

I don't think players should express an opinion EVER.

It's the likes of twitter and newspaper interviews that are leading to players becoming so influential with their opinions that they're having a direct effect on managers' jobs and therefore the club overall.

That shouldn't happen. I can't understand why managers don't ban players from using social networking sites. I reckon a time will come soon whereby it will be included in players' contracts.

He happens to be spot on here though. Rooney's tweet was extremely unprofessional to say the least.

Because if Rednapp doesn't get or take the job, the new manager is undermined from the outset because people know he wasn't some of the players' first choice.

Hypothetical scenario:

Your employer enters into an intent to purchase agreement with another (unknown) entity. You go onto social media sites or boards and post in your capacity as an employee of the company that you hope the new owner of the company is X. Professional or unprofessional behaviour?

Steve Claridge said it, was about 40 minutes into the second hour. Only interesting he said mind you.
He said Brian Barwick did the interview (chief executive of the fa at the time), and dismissed Martin O'Neill because he couldn't make a power play on a computer.

If this is true, it explains a lot.

It often amazes me that this is the type of clown that makes it to the top of an organisation that controls football in a country. When have they ever actually played the game? The priority should be to fill organisations like this with ex players, ex coaches, and ex managers so that they have some clue about what to do.

Someone should ask him if that computer was put in charge of Sunderland, would it have them on the run they're currently on?

These are the type of clowns that make footballing decisions like strip Terry of his captaincy without conferring with the manager. And give managers contract extensions before major tournaments.

The German 'Sport Bild' newspaper announced, that Juergen Klinsmann will take over from Harry Redknapp, who in the summer will take over from Capello :rolleyes:
