no no no. England's manifest destiny is to get to the quarter-finals, and then be beaten by the Germans, or in recent years, Portuguese.

ah well with me at the helm i will ensure we gub the gerries and the stinky portugese anyday
You see, you don't really understand what it means to be English...
absolutely. I have no problems with England and no problems helping England to possibly win this bloody WC in this game. I see it as a very interesting challenge with a lot of twists and it just may actually generate a bit of interest in the NT where it has diminished.
you just never know.
Lets face it - IF i fail the witch hunt will be very interesting indeed.

English people make rubbish witches. Scotch people have the accent for it.
BURN THEM WITCHES!
i suppose it was due to us making bigger pitch forks ;)

Your next game is against England with Denmark. Would you throw the game to boost England's ranking for the coming WC?
nope. I am a true professional :)
also on a side note because i am running in here it means i cannot MOD any of your NT threads so feel free to diminish all of them into utter chaos :)

Mods? Pffft.
How do you feel you have done in your jobs with Denmark and Scotland? Where do you think England should be in the NT rankings?

Well now there is a question Gibby.
Rankings: Certainly not where they are now but i do understand why that has happened. The dizzy days of top 3 are probably a bit too far fetched now simply due to user base. However top 20 and possibly top 10 should be the target for any manager. Clearly the team may have fell away since your days and Mr Foxes days again due to userbase (I know this has certainly been the case in Scotland).
Scotland - i thought i did pretty decent there actually - managing to get Scotland U21s through to the last 16 was a great achievement. Then with the senior team qualifying for the world cup was achieved and a glorious start in the qualification stage by beating the USA was then followed by a naive mistake from me. I went for the throat in the second game against Cheq republic - i should have played more cautiously in that game as Holland who i knew were too strong for our defence were up next. But hey lessons learned.
Denmark - I was surprised at Denmarks players in comparison to Scotlands with their overall much larger userbase. Thats no excuse though as they do have some very good players indeed. I scraped through the group stages due to an absolute disaster of a game against a ridiculous high defensive line from India. Greece were also in the group and they were a rising force so it was no walk in the park to shrug them off. Within the qualifiers i really shook my head a lot.
A 2-0 defeat against Mexico where i watched the game and believed Denmark were the better team only to be suckered with 2 goals. We then battered Hungary and then lost out to a sickening Spain game where again victory was there for the taking and it got grabbed away from me. I then watched mexico progress further and further into the competition and dreamt of what could have been.
I guess that little bit of luck just was not there, which any NT manager would know you need.

The English national team have a long history of employing managers who speak English as a second language. Sven Goran Erikkson - Swedish, Fabio Capello - Italian, Schteve McClaren - Dutch.
Do you consider speaking English as a first language to be to your detriment ?
