That's not what I was getting at, The point I tried to make is that if anyone was going to take the armband away it should have been the England Manager who has experience as a top level footballer playing for a top team in the world. has countless footballing honours and is not just simply a businessman from FCUK that did good business for Manchester City.
The FA doesn't have an image and moral problem with allowing someone that was facing trial for Tax evasion to manage a club competing in their league though do they? Funny that when he's hinted to be the next England manager.
One rule for one and one rule for another.
If the England manager cant speak his mind, Good luck finding a world class manager that will take that crap

Whatever happened to playing football because it was a boyhood dream to play for your favouritge football club? Apart from Best, I can't think of a single player in the game between the 1870's and 1980's that behaved like the animals of today's game.

You can only count today's footballers that are there for the game and not the money in 2 digits. Anything think Samuel Eto'o is playing in Russia because he wants too? Or because he enjoys picking up his £200,000+ a week pay. A lot of Footballer's tell fans what they want to hear when in reality its far from the Truth. Michael Owen a while back : I am enjoying playing for Newcastle United, Delighted to be here and will give it my all and score goals... Why lie out your arse Michael? You must think we are all blind or something.
