I am sure there are many who agree with you and I am one of them.

English media says: Watching McClaren's England games help to cure insomnia.


A picture of Steve "I'll blame it on Rooney" McClaren looking as clueless as ever.

Richards for P.Neville (72min) Why not bring an attacking player on and play with 3 central defenders? Dyer must be thinking he'd better off lying down in the hotel than sitting on the bench. haha.

Downing for Lennon (83min) Would Downing offer more than Lennon? Why was Lennon on the left? Wasnt Beckham dropped for Lennon?

Defoe for Johnson (80min) At least Defoe had 1 shot blocked in 10mins. Was Johnson in the team to win freekicks/penalties? He reminded me of an old retiring Shearer.

all started when the uncle couldnt decide who to drop - lampard or gerrard. ended up playing both. lennon ended up on the left wing. team cant score, but manager got no balls to take out either of them, much less take out a defender.

the papers read mclaren like a book prior to the game and got everything right. the man has lost all credibility. it is time for him to move on.

just my lousy 2 cents worth.

liked waddle, especially in the 87 season (the fa cup final loss to coventry season), i think. (bro castrol, pls confirm) playing right winger for spurs, he contributed a lot of crosses which clive allen scored from.

bro the Spurs Legends Series (titled by respected spurs guest - bro qbdp) is a weekly highlight, so watch this space.

1987 FA cup final -
At Wembley, Spurs' opponents were Coventry City and Spurs started as clear favourites. Five years earlier Clive Allen picked up an injury in the second minute of the FA Cup final; this time he picked up a goal. An early Hoddle free kick was cleared to Waddle on the right flank, and the England winger thundered in a near post cross which the perfectly-positioned Allen headed home. However, it would all end in heartbreak for Tottenham, as Coventry fought back to win 3-2 in extra time. Allen's final tally of 49 goals that season broke the Spurs club record held by Jimmy Greaves. He also picked up the titles of PFA Player of the Year and Football Writers' Association Footballer of the Year.

i was also thinking why he still got time to think about defenders. dyer could have taken the left wing and lennon on his preferred right. but gerrard was brilliant!

I would prefer to see Gerrard with Hargreaves in the centre anytime.

Yes, they read him like a children's bedtime storybook - no, not a thick one but one with few words and lots of pictures. haha.

Time for him to move on and my opinion of him still stay. That clueless one is best for arranging cones in training sessions.

Bro, I quite enjoy your Spurs thread and it's nothing wrong to support a thread started by a credible and knowledgeable football fan.

Bro, I think he scared he tio sacked if England lost. So he kiasi and kiasu made safe subs and then deflect blame to Rooney for not performing for England.

I lagi sian when didnt see Gerrard in the centre. Lampard should be out on the right - right next to McClaren in the dug-out.

Fans petition Blair to sack McClaren
Monday, March 26, 2007

The pressure on Steve McClaren was cranked up a notch on Monday with disgruntled fans launching a petition urging the Prime Minister to step in and sack the England head coach.

After Saturday's goallees draw in Israel left England's chances of qualifying for the 2008 European Championship in doubt, supporters turned to 10 Downing Street's official website which allows the public to post their own petitions to Tony Blair.

Simon Chapman, named as the author of the petition, writes: 'We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to use his remaining days and power to force the FA to sack Steve McClaren from his post as England manager.'
