Forgot about that. I wonder if he can continue to do that.

Just been confirmed that Gary has left Sky but is staying with England. Don't really have to do much for international matches although he'll be really busy around the end of season/Euro's time.

Maybe he will still be with Sky as well. It would seem crazy to give up a cushy job at Sky to go into the frying pan of football management.

I reckon he likes a challenge, going by how he came across on class of 92.

He's essentially a caretaker manager as deal is only to the end of the season.

when he called SKY to tell them he was quitting they put him on hold for 20 minutes before transferring him to retentions who offered him half price movies and unlimited broadband if he stayed

Very good.

Real Madrid are set to be kicked out of the Copa Del Rey after fielding an ineligible player in tonight's match against 3rd division Cadiz.

Cheryshev, their only goalscorer tonight, had a 1 match ban after picking up 3 yellows in last year's cup (was on loan at Villarreal then).

Valencia won which will please soon-to-be-new-temporary-boss Gary Neville.

Is this a certainty?

Seemed to sub him off quickly in the second half.

If Cadiz report it, which it looks like they will, then Real Madrid have to be thrown out. Osasuna were disqualified for the same reason this year. Also happened to Benitez before, Valencia were disqualified in 2001 for fielding an ineligible player.

As expected Real Madrid have been kicked out of the Copa Del Rey.

Neville's Valencia have not registered a single shot against the team bottom of the league.

Eibar are 10th in the table, same points as Valencia...

Oh.....just dread the headline.....it said smallest team in league. Don't know a) why that's a thing to mention in a headline or b) why I thought that meant poorest.
