FA Statement: Roy Hodgson
Sunday, 29 April, 2012
Approach made to WBA regarding England Manager's position.
West Bromwich Albion have today granted permission for The FA to speak with Roy Hodgson regarding the position of England Manager.
This follows an approach from FA Chairman David Bernstein to West Bromwich Albion Chairman Jeremy Peace.
David Bernstein said: "I'm grateful to Jeremy and all at West Bromwich Albion for their co-operation in allowing us to approach Roy, who I have since spoken with.
"Roy is the only manager we have approached and we remain on course to make an appointment within the timescale we set-out soon after Fabio Capello's departure.
"Further conversations will now take place with Roy and my Club England colleagues before any further announcements can be made."
I think (or hope) they'll still approach Harry. They likely already have but I wonder what his nibs is thinking right now.What a shock. But fucking hilarious. I really thought Harry was nailed on for the job and was looking forward to when the real specualtion started. It just goes to show, never take anything for granted in football.
I hope Dan Ashcroft et al have someone with medical training at hand when they find out.
when you're right you're rightThey'd be mugs just to sound out one man. Although it's the FA. And they are mugs.
