I don't think Jose has ruled himself out, actually. I don't think he'll want it just yet, but you never know. He has a giant ego that needs a giant stage.

As for Hiddink - he's well-overrated. Barely got Russia qualified (and only because we failed at the last hurdle). His record with SK was engineered on the back of him effectively shutting down the SK domestic league and seconding players for months at a time to get them to work together - that would never happen in England or anywhere in Europe.

Out of the Championship, with the exceptions youve given, I'd probably say Alan Pardew... but I wouldnt consider him for even England assistant.
Just wondering if you thought there was anyone up and coming who might be up for the job in a few years.

Rumours say that Paul Ince will be selected to lead Derby - could be interesting although I think he has zero chance to keep them up. That squad of players is dire.
