Probably the fact we are playing a few friendlies next year and then we start qualifying for the WC in September, the earlier the better I say, give him a chance to assess what he's working with (not much), some mug on the radio was suggesting we wait until after Euro 2008 to select the manager, a month before our 1st qualifier, laughable !

Oh and in answer to your question, they palmed it off to Ed ***** the Education Secretary for a couple of mil no doubt

Quote:

This is what Ed ***** said: "School standards are rising. But I want to accelerate the improvement.

"So I have asked Sir Jim Rose to undertake a root and branch review of the primary curriculum to create more space for teaching the basics - English and maths, a foreign language in all primary schools - and also to ensure all children start secondary school with the personal skills to succeed.
