no coincidence the FA picked an Englishman There was a lot of talk in the press about how they wanted an English (and later, British) candidate. But really, it only hurts them if they choose to limit their search to people who don't necessarily have the same caliber: keep in mind that the top 6 Premiership finishers last season all had non-English coaches.
And I thought we'd already established that I don't support Spain because I expect them to win tournaments, but because I like the way they play football. As an England fan, of course, you have recourse to neither of those explanations :-)
