The Boro job was too big for him.
Southgate replacing ETH? Yes or No?

At least Southgate has dropped Rashford but on the other hand with Maguire….
I think the last time the world tried that, it didn’t end well…
I hope that this is actually the case. I’m still worried that we might end up choosing him though.
I think we all should be getting wound it. It’s the only reasonable reason why they’ve not sacked him yet and there delaying it. Because the manager they’re obsessed with is about to compete in an international tournament.
Some far more reliable journalists have already ruled it out a few weeks ago. I sense some journalists are trying to rile up our supporters to try and get some movement maybe from Ineos. The problem for Ineos is that, if they keep dithering, this will eventually catch fire and the fans will turn on them quickly. Not a good start and something they should avoid.
If that’s the case I’ll be fecking furious. He’ll be even more of a guaranteed failure than David Moyes (nearly typed Bowie because I’m listening to him right now). The players won’t respect him, the fans will never take to him, and it’ll all end in tears as it’ll be yet another shit season.
Changing vote from last resort to no.
INEOS can’t be dumb enough to hire Southgate, he’s a terrible manager who’s been lucky to keep his current job. I havent enjoyed watching England for a while but under Southgate it is just so dire, the guy seems to have zero personality and is no where near good enough to manage us.
I'd rather David Moyes returned as manager than hire Southgate
I’d rather have Brendan Rodgers over Southgate.
It's not the only reasonable reason. That's lunacy. They may want to enter a new contract under terms that are more suited to the new structure, they may want to be sure on Poch vs Tuchel if they sack, they may want to wait for face to face talks and wait for ten Hag to return. There's tons of reasons, stop getting wound up from Southgate links during quiet news cycles. It's so easy to put out and frustrating when fans just get hyped and scared shit less over it.
Big Sam over Southgate (yep I'm serious).
I’d rather have a bag of potato‘s over Southgate
That’s a new record. Although I’m pretty sure I wanted Moyes out before he even became manager; I at least never wanted him as our manager and correctly predicted that it would end in tears.
Hiring someone who’s team also can’t break down low blocks, sounds swell! Must be a Brexit thing
And they may want to wait another month until England are out of the euros. If they didn’t like ETH they’d have got him out by now. If we didn’t win the FA cup he’d be 100% gone by now. Apparently according to a lot of people they’d already made their minds up before the FA cup final or was that just nonsense?
Would be lucky to get a job at a lower PL club. Terrible manager.
Don’t want even to believe that this is contemplated.
I'll be Southgate out from day one if he's appointed and anyone calling me negative can feck off in advance. Please don't be so stupid Ineos.
This has surely got be media BS ? We have had some questionable mangers since SAF left, Southgate would be at the bottom of that list if we hired him.
If he gets hired, we can safely say Ratcliffe, Ashworth and the rest of the INEOS feckers are dumb as feck.
How is he?
Watching this game and loving the thought of being managed by Sir Gareth Southgate MBE OBE PhD
Best in a class where you keep everyone else out because they‘re from across the sea.
Southgate’s been mentioned a lot. Targeting players like Branthwaite.
It’s like choosing between having rabies or cholera.That raises an interesting hypothetical… Moyes or Southgate?
Not an easy one…
It's the worst possible scenario.
I'd take Big Sam over Southgate.
The thought that there’s rumours alone makes me angry. How can we countenance the idea?
He's a truly dreadful manager but then Utd aren't exactly known for competent decision making!
Anyone reliable reporting this?
Great audition by Gareth tonight…..
Dear Jim.
I hope you’ve watched tonight’s match. Please can you fix it for me to NOT let Southgate anywhere near my club (but stay as England for decades).
Yours, Billy.

Twice Eze hasn’t used the overlapping player.
In response to the thread heading….
Are you smoking crack?

What he just served up versus Iceland needs to make INEOS wake the feck up
After tonight I can see why United are after Southgate, total shit
