Roy Hodgson retiring

[LEONARD]

He was too decent for the RS.

I bet he's sick of the modern game, VAR and all.

Wish him well, a nice man.

Tournaments were always a bit of a damp squib. Some of the qualifiers we played as well were against pretty poor competition.

Granted, you only beat what is in front of you (and we've had a few botch doing that) but the quality wasn't always high. But credit to him, his record qualifying was excellent.

The Tournaments though

He’s not the only one mate..

Thanks for the derby.

Gent.

 

[tommytowne]

Let's hope Palace give him a great send off by denying the rs 4th spot.

My overwhelming wish.
On the other hand the wily old fox may like to give his ex-employers a leaving present of his own. There you go Jurgen, have these three points on me.

His Missus Sheila is from here, notably from a family of Evertonians too. Too decent indeed.

Have to admit I found he hugely frustrating as England manager but he has had an amazing career overall and always seemed a decent guy. Not many get to say goodbye on their own terms, wish him a long and very happy retirement.

I see Herr Klopp is in the press saying that he promises that the Liverpool supporters will give Roy Hodgson a proper farewell in his final game at their place. Hmmm....hypocrisy or maybe just the usual RS denial of past events. I recall them being the agent provocateurs to his last farewell from them...when they petitioned FSG in their thousands to sack him immediately. Roy was on the sticky end of their wrath for his response to their open criticism of him during matches there when they were chanting "Hodgson for England" and "Dalglish". He suggested that theyd be better off getting behind the team instead.
Of course, now the usual applies...if they dont mention it, it never happened.

Agreed. Remember Dalglish lurking like the Grim Reaper when the knives were out.

Brilliant, 2 Dinosaurs gone out of the PL in a week, BFS and Hodgson.

Moyes and Bruce still the flag for the 442 direct physical football 70's 80's up and at them purists.

 

[Alanbileysfeathercut]

Bye Woy.
You old wascall
Enjoy your weetirement.

 

[marnie]

Proper old school gentleman of the game. Well done Roy for everything you have given the game. You enjoy your retirement.

It was shameless touting for the job by just being there all the time in that over-sized overcoat, while the cult chanted his name at the FSG ghost and his scarf adorned missus in the Directors Box. Then we had the faux humility.." if the club think I could help them, Im always willing to do what I can". A degrading episode.

 

[GoodisonRoadSupperBarWool]

My favourite Liverpool manager

 

[Mildredblues]

Another Crystanbul would be a fitting way to leave Roy.

Unfortunately we bend over and spread our cheeks for them every game more or less since Roy came
