He said he had a chance to sign for us back in 2013, but part of the conversation was that he would have to get his SHA tattoo removed. Judging by what he said it seems this, along with his family's reaction, are the only reasons he didn't.
Personally, my problem with Southgate isn't to do with his record. My problem is that his England side is so unimaginably dull to watch. To a fan football is entertainment, and there's nothing entertaining about his tactics.
I'm sure I've asked this before, but why do you continue to inflict this torture on yourself? What are you, some kind of masochist?
Not that I'm complaining or anything - your synopses are pure entertainment.
I have no faith in any of football's governing bodies. They've set a precedent with Everton that they will not follow, and they will provide no explanation or justification for it. There is no justice, only greed.
