From Sky Sports. I really wish he wouldn't comment on this. I know he's been asked but really he just needed to say "I'm Scottish its nothing to do with me".

No surprise with his description of Hodgson though! :roll:
Coyle - Harry priced out
Trotters manager Coyle gives backing to 'terrific' Hodgson
Bolton manager Owen Coyle believes Harry Redknapp may have been priced out of the England job.

"If it is an English manager you are looking for, then Roy and Harry are the two you certainly would have been looking to choose between."

Tottenham boss Redknapp was the overwhelming favourite to be named as the next Three Lions manager following the departure of Fabio Capello.

The Football Association's move for West Brom head coach Roy Hodgson has surprised many onlookers, although Coyle believes he has all the credentials needed to be a success.

But the Scot thinks Redknapp, who he faces when Bolton host Tottenham on Wednesday, is also an "outstanding" candidate.

He indicated the compensation demanded by Spurs for Redknapp, thought to be in the region of £10m, could have turned the FA's attention towards Hodgson, whose contract at the Hawthorns is set to expire in the summer.

"Harry was always going to be a difficult one because of the compensation involved," said Coyle.

Remote Record "But Roy is a terrific manager, someone I have a lot of time for, and I have no doubts he can bring real success to the England national team.

"I always felt it was between the two of them. There was a clamour for Harry and we all understand why.

"But it didn't surprise me that they then tried to approach Roy.

"I am absolutely thrilled. If Roy decides to take the job, there is no doubt he ticks every box in terms of what England are looking for.

"He has a proven track record and international experience. Obviously people made a lot of Harry being the favourite and I think you have two outstanding candidates there.

"If it is an English manager you are looking for, then those are the two you certainly would have been looking to choose between

Spurs havent won at the reebok ever

This is ours for the taking, if we keep up the fight we've been showing recently then we can take all 3 points
That is almost worthy of a ban!

100% loss for us now, we bloody love to help teams break their bad records.

Nah, I'd rather he didn't turn into Kenny Dalglish. Bad enough being tactically questionable, let alone personally truculent.

I think these quotes will have no effect whatsoever on our next two opponents. Hardly like Arry or Woy are going to pin them on the dressing room wall, is it?

I can't believe he answered a question that he was asked! What a bell-end!

It didn't seem that bad to me and nothing to take offense at. He always bigs up other managers and did the same here. It's his way of flattering to deceive.

Four points from the next two home games needed. 5/7 from the last three games of the season. A victory here would see us a long way towards that, and reduce pressure in the final two games vs WBA and the Potters. A draw would see the tension revved up exponentially before Saturday's game. A defeat is not acceptable.

Right! Sorry, Boris - I quoted the wrong post - should have gone with the first.

I really can't see us winning this match. But a draw wouldn't be a bad result they have to much going forward for us, and we can't keep clean sheets. Hope i'm wrong, on the plus side Gallas can't defend against KD so we will have to get in there faces from the first minute. I'm going for a 2-2 draw
