It's a bit of fun.

 

[Maccarone]

Good to see him back in any capacity.
Keep well Glen

 

[Foggysfplandiet3]

Wel, I suppose it’s marginally less humiliating than taking the manager’s job at Sunderland but still....

Masked Singer at least doesn’t take itself seriously, unlike X Factor and what not.

I was only young but seem to remember him as a really good England manager, guess he was overtaken by his crazy views, rubbish on comms though.

 

[NYboro]

Did he not get laughed out of the job for using a psychic to help pick the team?

 

[Colgates_shaving_foam]

I think he was sacked as he thought disabled people were 'paying' for sins in a past life? Profuse apologies if I've got this wrong by the way

 

[Lemmy_kilmister]

No, he intimated that being disabled was a punishment for sins in a former life.

 

[Rofesleg]

The disabled comments were naively made during a 'private' conversation. They actually reflected the religious views of billions. It was reported slightly out of context and gave the FA the final excuse they needed to sack him following a catalogue of weird behaviour.
In my opinion, the worst thing he did as England manager was to release excerpts of his book during the World Cup- betraying confidences of players. Especially Gazza's.

He’s a decent chanter actually.....

 

[Left_peg]

He knows his stuff about football, proper weirdo though. He’s an awful co-commentator because he talks as a coach, which is boring and above the head of the average Joe.

 

[McBrid]

Clearly doesn’t seem to be that popular on here but I like Glenn Hoddle

 

[Foggysfplandiet3]

He was on Loose Women today, I hear.

He must be skint.

I've never had a problem with him either

@TommyPlus always believed he would be our next manager every time we had the vacancy

I backed him for every job going for a decent length of time. Ahead of his time and would still do a job now.

 

[Foggysfplandiet3]

Seems to have come to the conclusion that he won’t get another job in football hence appearances on these programmes.

 

[Steer]

It beats doing real work. Fair play to him. That and punditry, cant be a bad way to earn a living.
