I might try managing Rangers, and putting their house in order - selling or releasing all the players on Premier league contracts and going with an all-scots youth system and making them live within their means.

Yep, what he is saying is enough English teams already. Plenty room in Spain, France or Ukraine tho: Healywilliamson - Arsenal Luarez - Man City Liam The Awesome - Chelsea joejonestherock - Man Utd makumbi - Tottenham finlaych - Liverpool JonnyB21 - Newcastle melv89 - QPR Me (jokersgoons1992)-...
