It's got to be said, you reap what you sow, and the FA's failure to plan in advance for Hodgson's contractual exit after Euro 2016 rushed them into appointing Allardyce.

Now the WC campaign is underway and the season is still young there are even less candidates available and it will cost the FA another fortune to prise away anyone decent currently in a job and under contract.

The FA lurch from one crisis to another, the shame of it is that it's all so PREDICTABLE :(

Thanks a bunch, f***ing Daily Telegraph. Neatly sabotaging our national team. Best manager we've had in ages, outstanding English manager of his generation, and one with an outstanding record at getting the best out of players, and the feckin' Torygraph sets him up to fail.

Yes he was a fool to fall for it, and ridiculously greedy (how much of a bit on the side do you need if you're on (allegedly) £3M a year?), but what did the Torygraph reporters want to prove? Which nation's interests were they intent on furthering? - certainly not England's. OK, Sam's been a prat and has to go, but the Torygraph team are the lowest of low scum.

Now they've landed us with an incompetent ineffective suit of the worst order. Thanks a bunch, you creeps - that's another paper - along with the S*n - I'll never buy - or trust - again.

It's having a free press that holds people accountable for their actions that makes Great Britain different from other nations that don't have a free press and are rotten to the core - like Russia, for instance.

Don't blame the paper. They just exposed his greed. They haven't made up the story, unlike the other rag, you mentioned.

Looks like Allardyce had the ultimate revenge as we're stuck with Palace Southgate now

What could possibly go wrong?

You might change your mind when you see the papers later this week.

Hoddle's beliefs are obviously appalling, but The Times also went fishing in his fateful interview.

There wasn't a story until they conspired to concoct one. Sam shouldn't have fallen for it, true, but the low-lifes need never have set it up in the first place. All they've achieved is robbing the national team of a decent manager and replacing him with an ineffective suit.

Bad day all round, but the Telegraph doesn't come out of it covered in glory.

The free press should concentrate on reporting the news, not contriving to make news by underhand means.

Roy Hodgson expresses his deep sadness that Big Sam has been sacked as England boss.
