Thierry Henry leaves Sky

Ryan Mason might be a shout ?

Sky seem to like Craig Bellamy too. He might get more of a role.

I thought she was superb on the BBC and better than anyone on ITV!

Oh god, please no! Or McManaman either!

Maybe Mark Lawrenson will defect... :eek:

or... Fat Sam! :eek:

! Keown! The dreary, awful commentator/pundit list is endless.

What’s Andy Townsend doing these days, or Ron Atkinson?

Bubo · 18 Jul 2018 at 12:34

I would have Big Ron back in a heartbeat. He has done his time by now.

Ron Atkinson? You mean the racist?

Why should he be given any airtime?

We was only joking, he’s an old man now.

Anyway, got to be honest, he called someone a bad word once and apologised but was never allowed back on TV. What I never remember him doing is gobbing out of his car window at a man and his daughter, yet apparently, an apologies good enough for that and Carra has been welcomed back. I found Hoddle’s comments about disabled people utterly abhorrent and they offended me. He lost his job, but I still have to endure his inane ramblings on TV.

Hoddle shouldn't be on TV either...what he / Carra did doesn't change the fact that Atkinson is a racist tool.

MissChief · 19 Jul 2018 at 14:04

As long as it's not Roy Keane or Slaven Bilic I won't mind.

Course it doesn’t, but it still shows inconsistency in punishment.

Arsene Wenger?

He'd be awful! He never sees anything!

Converge · 23 Jul 2018 at 18:51

He’d just reply that “I did not see the incident” and shrug his shoulders.

And it's starting to look like he left Sky to take the Villa job!

As a Villa fan, I'm both nervous and excited about this.

Nervous because football management is littered with the dead careers of retired top-class players who turned out to be terrible managers.

Excited becasuse... well, it's Thierry Heny! And we've had a dreaful, dour last several years. At least it will bring some excitement back. And I'd imagine he's got a lot of good contacts in the game to bring in promising young talent. Also I'd imagine a lot of players would be looking forward to working with him.

Bit hard on Bruce, though, if true who seems a very likable, decent and honest character who didn't really do that badly for us considering.

Bubo · 25 Jul 2018 at 09:21

I repeat, absolutely anyone as long as it's not John Terry, though I am getting a very bad feeling about this

Really? You've/Bruce spent more than PL clubs and ultimately failed, it can't have been that bad in the last two years buying the likes of Hourihane, Snodgrass, Hogan, Lansbury, Adomah for absolute fortunes!

They were all punished differently for different things .

One says a bad word and is never allowed to work on tv again, the other commits assault and is back on tv within the year.

That’s inconsistency if you ask me.
