[QUOTE="Bada-Bing!, post: 1125621, member: 70552"] What the RFU have done with Woodward reminds me of what the FA did with Sir Alf Ramsey in Wendyball. Both jettisoned the only manager to win a World Cup for England in their sports and didn’t make use of their experience and knowledge afterwards. He should really have been a technical director way back after he left the role. Probably way too late now. But isn’t it a sad indictment of the RFU? Carling was right calling them the old farts. I’d also say about a lot of old RWC winning team not getting to the top of coaching. Borthwick deserves his chance, but I get the Southgate vibes about him - probably due to both their England playing careers. At least Borthwick has won a club ***le before, but suspect he’ll be hamstrung like Southgate is with the domestic league. [/QUOTE]
