it's so stupid that the culture on this board is such that england's manager quitting can't have its own thread.

Quote : | "Fabio Capello today quit as England manager, the Football Association tonight announced.
Capello resigned following a meeting with FA chairman David Bernstein and general secretary Alex Horne at Wembley Stadium.
An FA statement read: “The Football Association can confirm that Fabio Capello has today resigned as England manager.”
The statement went on: "This follows a meeting involving FA chairman David Bernstein, FA general secretary Alex Horne and Fabio Capello at Wembley Stadium.
"The discussions focused on the FA board’s decision to remove the England team captaincy from John Terry, and Fabio Capello’s response through an Italian broadcast interview.
"In a meeting for over an hour, Fabio’s resignation was accepted and he will leave the post of England manager with immediate effect."
Bernstein said the resignation was the right course of action.
The FA chairman said: "I would like to stress that during today’s meeting and throughout his time as England manager, Fabio has conducted himself in an extremely professional manner.
"We have accepted Fabio’s resignation, agreeing this is the right decision. We would like to thank Fabio for his work with the England team and wish him every success in the future."
Bernstein and the Club England management team will hold a media conference at Wembley at 12 noon tomorrow.
The shock resignation brings an end to Capello's four years in charge of England - he had been due to step down after the European Championship and leaves the FA needing to appoint a replacement as soon as possible.
The next international is later this month, a friendly against Holland on February 29 at Wembley.
The timing of the meeting coincided almost exactly with Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp, the outstanding candidate to replace Capello, being cleared of tax evasion charges.
The FA’s decision to go over Capello’s head and strip Terry of the captaincy until after his July court case where he will deny racially abusing QPR’s Anton Ferdinand led to the Italian quitting his £6m-a-year post.
Capello told Italian TV that he "absolutely" disagreed with the action against Terry and that set him on a collision course with the FA." |

WOAH WOAH GUYS
i didn't mean too much of an anti-soccer culture. i meant too much of an anti-new-thread culture.
Ernie got me, i think.

here's the thing: whether you care or not, people are talking about this in ST... in a thread about a specific soccer event. that is stupid. 2/8/2012 4:42:41 PM |
aimorris All American 15213 Posts user info edit post |
no, stupid is making a thread about something you know will get 99% posts about how soccer sucks and how creating a thread about it is dumb.
I don't keep soccer stuff in soccer threads because I want to abide by some imaginary TWW rules. It's just easier to keep it all in one place so I don't have to see people like BigHitSunday posting their opinions on it. 2/8/2012 4:53:40 PM |

This.
I wish the culture on TWW was such that the children who don't like a sport could just ignore threads that dont interest them or that I could just suspend those who do troll these threads but alas they don't and I can't. Our soccer system on here otherwise works decently well.2/9/2012 8:25:13 AM |
