Tatey, my friend, good to see you posting. No, the RWC didn't make me hide. Being behind on the new book did that. South Africa won deservedly. The only team to win all their matches. Worthy world champs.

And now Mac has let us all down. See the new post... too gutted for clever words.

Ah Barkers - good to have you back online. I was worried that the RWC Final defeat had knocked you out of your stride with such a long time since a post. I'm trying to forget the "heroic" title defence but have a sweet SA girl I employed earlier in the year to remind me!

Thank goodness I can turn to football - my true passion! I am in agreement that there really is nobody else for the England job. I recall Peter Taylor (now ex of Palace) once being touted as the great hope and now he's gone to Stevenage! Let the Ginger One guide us to Euro 2008 triumph.

When England don't perform these days, it is very easy to get caught up in the media frenzy and say 'Maclaren Out!' But like you say, who else is there? I just hope he can learn from his mistakes.

Ah, Mr Pedney. A heart-warming and much expected Leeds fan type response. As you know, it doesn't matter who is in charge of the England team, we will come home one match too early (at least) and curse our misfortune.

Just watch this space with Big Mac. Assuming he doesn't have another brain away day like against Austria where in a meaningless match he risked all our best fit players and lost the one most likely to score, we will qualify and England will do well in 2008. Win? On four decades of history, that is unliely but at least we look interested these days.

And when Denis Wise becomes England manager, I will be supporting roller-hockey or dressage of something of that nature.

And you dance like a street lamp. So ner.

Years of supporting East Anglia's second club has obviously affected your judgement. Replace Mac now and do us all a favour. In terms of who should take his place - all I need to say is 'Get the Chelsea out of Leeds'! Be assured you can have both Denis and Ken - we will march on without them back to the Premiership. As for England, disappointment is never far away so at least with them in charge we will be put out of our misery early in Euro 2008.

By the way - you dance like a girl!
