    Default Re: Managerial Merry-Go-Round

    According to today's Guardian, Harry Redknapp faces the sack after a severe dislocation of the relationship with Daniel Levy, Chairman of the Board -the lattering being furious that Spurs failed to get into Europe and thinks Redknapp was distracted by chatter about the England job. If Redknapp goes, the chat is that Moyes will replace him -but where will Harry go? He has hired Paul Stretford as his agent, which is most curious given Stretford's -alleged- dirty dealings over his cash cow, Wayne Rooney...

    So, 'Arry's gone. Until the last few days did anyone see that coming?

    Given what's happened at Spurs over the years, would Moyes be a fool to take the job? And Moyes has shown consistently how to succeed with minimal resources. How does that fit with Spurs' philosophy and ambition? And if not Moyes, then who?

    Surely the problem at Tottenham over the years has been bad management, and Levy has been part of it. The team with Lineker, Gascoigne and Mabbut that was one of the most entertaining in the league (as was Newcastle when Ginola and Shearer were there) was badly let down by the management who have frankly been more interested in money than football. But Spurs has always been a mediocre club occasionally raised by players known for their flair rather than strategy, they exist to make life difficult for Arsenal, Manchester United, and Liverpool.

    1) If Hodgson fails to get England to the semi-finals there will be a campaign to get rid of him and replace him with Harry;
    2) if he does get England to the semi-final he stays, and England successfully head off to Brazil;
    3) Martinez looks to me a better bet than Moyes for the Spurs job, they have a history of employing Latinos -even if it hasnt always been a successful history;
    4) As it happens, I don't care.

    Maybe the big question is, Who's Next? Ferguson? Wenger? Now there are two managerial positions that are hard to fill....
