Mailbag: Twit tw-who should Crystal Palace appoint next?
Oliver Glasner has set fire to his own ship at Crystal Palace, so imagine this - which old reliable strigiform is ready to swoop from the skies and extinguish the blaze? None other than Roy Hodgson of course! Unfortunately for the Ramble, that probably isn't going to happen. So if they don't break glass for Hodgson, who should they get instead? Luke and Jim are on the Mailbag to tell Marcus that Sir Gareth Southgate might not be the answer to that question either. Plus, which manager from past or present would we most like to suckle on the teat of? Find us on Bluesky, X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and email us here: [email protected].

The Manchester United way
Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s suckle on the teat was too hard, Ruben Amorim’s too soft, but Michael Carrick’s is just right. That, ladies and gentlemen, is the Manchester United way. There’s no Blue Monday at the Football Ramble when Marcus, Luke and Jim have got more managerial chaos to enjoy at Spurs and Crystal Palace. Plus, Marcus’ aunt is still giddy from an absolutely extraordinary climax to AFCON.
