Fri, 10 Feb 2012 22:00:06 GMT

The FA reckon Luis Suarez and Patrice Evra should shake hands when they come face to face on Saturday, because even boxers touch gloves before they beat the living daylights out of each other. In Audley Harrison’s case, it was the only meaningful shot he landed. Shaking isn’t compulsory, but it is encouraged by those grey men at the Football Association, particularly at the urinals. The FA have asked the two players to draw a line under their unsavoury spat and are hoping to return to some so...

Why do Rooney and co want Redknapp to succeed Capello? He'll make playing for England fun again

Fri, 10 Feb 2012 00:00:53 GMT

Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand have already taken to Twitter to say Harry Redknapp is the man they’d like as next England manager. And there is a feeling among the players that he has the character to unify a dressing room in danger of becoming split on racial lines. There is also a degree of weariness about the thought of another foreign manager taking control. Many of them had great respect for Fabio Capello, partly because of all he had achieved in a glorious club career in Italy and Spain...

For a man who just shot the sheriff, David Bernstein looked thoroughly unruffled. The FA chairman was matter-of-fact when he talked about the departure of Fabio Capello the previous night. There was nothing complicated about it, he suggested. No agonising. No dithering. And certainly no regrets. He, and the FA’s general secretary Alex Horne, had told Capello they were not impressed with his dissenting comments about stripping John Terry of the England captaincy. Capello had taken umbrage...

There is no doubt Harry Redknapp, hot favourite for the England job, has an amazingly consistent track record. Huntingdon, Plumpton, Taunton – he’s backed losers at pretty much every track. We learned from his tax evasion trial that the second-most lucrative job in football is Redknapp’s accountant. The first is Redknapp’s turf accountant. ’Arry’s odds to replace Fabio Capello drifted on Thursday after he said his only focus was Spurs, possibly how to extricate himself from his contract there...
