    Why? I'd rather he be good. English managers are crap. Fact.

    When was the last time an English manager won the Premiership? I don't know. I doubt anyone does.

    Having said that, I'd be a good manager and I'm English. I have taken Gateshead from the Conference North to League Two within three years. We are now consolidating our position in League Two (ie fighting a relegation battle).

    Off the top of my head; George Graham with Arsenal in 1989 when they beat Liverpool with a late Michael Thomas goal at Anfield.

    Was it back in the days when they didn't have substitutes, they played in those long shorts and the fans all wore flat-caps?

    An English manager has never won the premiership.

    Anyway, that wasn't even the last time an English manager won the league.

    God sat on the settee with a wife-beater, a gay-basher and the most English sounding Welshman since Vinnie Jones. This was shown live on SKY Sports.

    The same day, an Englishman managed a club to the top league title in English football.

    It's ingrained upon my memory, never to be shifted.

    Incidently, God saw the error of his ways a few short months later

    Okay, you're prolly not going to be able to google that.

    Who are the four player I'm referring to that sat on the settee?
