The odds on Brendan Rodgers for the Liverpool job have dropped dramatically

Martinez still favourite, but am worried now

Wow that's a dramatic drop.. Wouldn't mind Rodgers getting the job at all..

I bloody would!

[Dante]

So I guess they were right to sack Clark then

Evidently.

Congrats to Huddersfield! Are there any Terriers fans on here?

No, but I've been kinda backing them since we sacked Grayson and he went to them - very pleased for them (Nothing to do with them going over a Sheffield team )

Huddersfield.

#England line-up tonight v Norway: Green, Jones, Baines, Gerrard, Jagielka, Lescott, Milner, Parker, Carroll, Young, Downing. #EC

I went to uni in Huddersfield, went to see them a few times when they had student offers on tickets.

It's a good club, good stadium and really good fans. One of the things that struck me when I moved to Huddersfield, was that almost all the locals support Huddersfield. I find most towns have a glut of United, Liverpool, Spurs, Arsenal fans and then a relative minority support the local club, its the opposite in Huddersfield, really has the feel of a local community club.

[BCFC Fan]

Why is Jagielka starting tonight if he isn't in the actual squad?

Roy.

He's back-up, johnson's got an infected toe apparently

[Bene Version 3]

Rob Green returns to claim his rightful spot as England's No.1

sounds a lot like norwich, i'm a spurs fan, born in north london but live in norwich and have done for the last 7 years and they have a great local feel to them and a great backing.

England team looks good except Downing who one of the ITV pundits thought was 22/23.

[DML]

So pleased for huddersfield. They were robbed by bury all those seasons ago when the league changed the rule from goal difference to goals scored for one season sending them down. All these years later they are back. So deserved.

Yeah, WTF? I presumed he was talking about Carroll. It was Peter Reid btw, though hearing the voice I thought it was Paul Jewell initially.

[Zellery]

Why have all the England players got a single red rose?

EDIT: Never mind.

[Harman]

England fans already chanting "I want to go home"

I hate that chant.

1. Everyone sings it
2. Go on then

[A J Styles]

I hate the England band so much.

[Ginga]

Imagine they banned the theme from The Great Escape.

[Harman]

Great goal there from Young!
