QUOTE(Suedehead2 @ May 18 2012, 12:06 AM)  Capello gave the distinct impression that he didn't like England much so that would be a rather odd appointment. Besides, his English is even harder to understand than Dalglish's. He said in an interview he wanted a Premier League job not so long ago. Think he was hoping for Chelsea/Spurs though. Liverpool probably an attractive proposition to him, but just unsure whether we'd pay big bucks on his wages for a probable short term appointment. I'm still gutted Kenny got the sack. He gave his compensation to the kitty for new players (£8m apparently). The guy is a legend. |

As for Capello, I'll go back to what I said about his English. It didn't seem to improve over his time as England manager. There have been foreign managers whose English has improved over time as well as others whose English has always been excellent but can you see Capello's getting any better? It may not matter much in interviews but it does matter in the day to day manager's job, probably more so at club level than at international level. |

Interviewing up to 12 candidates. Rafa or AVB would be my choices, but Rafa seems to be out of the question
Brendan Rodgers has turned down an interview, which is the right decision in my opinion as he obviously doesn't feel like he's ready QUOTE(Rooney @ May 17 2012, 11:54 PM) Dave Whelan's been an absolute c**t about it, already trying to stir stuff up This Did he really need to run off and do an interview with Sky Sports News ? It'd be different if Martinez had actually got the job, but he's only being interviewed. Whelan is blatantly trying to push him out of the door and get that compensation. Cannot stand him It's all just embarrasing for Martinez if he doesn't get the job |

West Ham has been promoted to the Premier League after winning the play-off final at Wembley 2-1 against Blackpool. Big Sam has taken them up.
Do you think West Ham will stay in the Premiership next season? |

Wanted Blackpool to go up tbh, don't like West Ham at all even though I do like a lot of their players. Ah well, at least I'll get to go to Blackpool away again next season
 And yeah, West Ham will stay up I think. Can see all 3 staying up again. |

I couldn't care less which one went up but I'm quite happy to say fuck off to West Ham, their manager and their fans, and hope that a few other teams might get picked on TV this season!

You're welcome. We played poorly for a lot of the game today, Blackpool's pressing game took us by surprise but with a couple of decent signings (preferably both defenders) we'll easily amass enough points to stay up. Would expect at least one of the other two to survive as well. |

At least one of the promoted teams will go straight back down. Villa will probably improve. Hopefully Wigan will finally go down! I was really impressed with Blackpool. Gutted Ince decided to leave Liverpool, always thought he would be a good player.

Really wanted blackpool to win today. Nicky maynard aka the greedy b****** has in my opinion made the worst decision possible for playing regular premier league football.how many games has he played for west ham this season? not many and promoted teams are famous for splashing the cash on the forward line. Btw does anyone know if the league 1 final is tomorrow or next weekend?

So York City go back up to the Football League for the first time in 8 years after a 2-1 win against Luton Town. For the second year in a row, Luton lose out in the play-off final. Will Fleetwood and York City stay in League 2 next season?

 Pissed off that the game wasn't on TV though.

For the second year in a row, Luton lose out in the play-off final. Will Fleetwood and York City stay in League 2 next season? Fleetwood will go up automatically next season. York probably top half. Be very very surprised if either clubs went down. The top 8/9 teams in the Conference are as good as any league side, probably better than half of them. Just look at how good clubs do once they come up from the Conference. Absolutely elated. The Conference is the toughest league to get out of, and the strength of the teams is unbelieveable. Feel a bit sorry for Luton as we both deserve to be Football League clubs. But absolutely made-up. |

No side promoted from the Conference has ever gone straight back down which pretty much confirms what others have said about the top of that league.
Apparently Luton sold more tickets for their play-off final than Blackpool did for theirs. Even allowing for the dig difference in distance that's still pretty astonishing. |

Blackpool's turnout yesterday was appalling, did they sell their allocation two years ago? |

Yes they did, and their support was terrible (Luton's). Just full of day trippers. To be fair it is a very expensive trip from up north to Wembley. And York fans have done it twice in 8 days. Just goes to show the volume of support can count for nothing. Luton might possibly have had more support, but the FA didn't grant them any more tickets after the sold out their allocation. Great to be back in the Football League. |

Most people probably thought he was mad to turn down a contract with Liverpool, but he made the right decision. He'd still be in our reserves at the age of 20 if he'd stayed Another reason why I hope we give youth more of a chance next season. Took the FA Cup and Carling Cup so seriously and yet could have given a few youngsters a chance vs. the likes of Exeter |

Which is why I mentioned the distance. Even allowing for that and one-day supporters it is still embarrassing for Blackpool. |
