He is well beyond retirement age, not in great health and hardly needed the stress that being a football manager brings, so can go into permanent retirement now.
Roy Hodgson leaves Crystal Palace: 'A season too far - time for manager to hang up tracksuit'
By Phil McNulty
Chief football writer
Roy Hodgson's nomadic 48-year career in management took him around the world but has surely ended at the place he called home - Crystal Palace.
The drug of football that has been Hodgson's lifelong addiction may well have been sampled for the last time with his departure from Selhurst Park amid fan disaffection and a drop towards the Premier League's danger zone. After he stepped down as manager with the club in 16th and, having been taken ill last week, surely it is time for English management's elder statesman to finally hang up his tracksuit. If Palace, Hodgson's boyhood club, is to be the 76-year-old's final port of call he can look back on a fine body of work, but one that proved he was more suited to clubs of a middling level rather than when his journey took him to the game's highest places. Hodgson's desperate seven-month reign at Liverpool, along with a four-year tenure as England manager that included the rank embarrassment of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil and the Euros in France two years later, are evidence of his limitations. |

Oliver Glasner: Crystal Palace appoint former Eintracht Frankfurt boss as manager. Crystal Palace have appointed former Eintracht Frankfurt boss Oliver Glasner as their new manager. The 49-year-old Austrian replaces Roy Hodgson, who stepped down on Monday so Palace could "bring forward their plans to appoint a new manager at the end of the season". Palace are 16th in the Premier League after 10 defeats in the past 16 games. Glasner has signed a contract until June 2026 ( wonder if he will last that long ? ) and will be in charge for Saturday's home game against Burnley. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/68342650 |

Will it work a second time for Harris,may bring a buzz to the fans and that may help.Hostility in the crowd can filter down to the players and they can easily lose confidence in their ability.Don't want Millwall in our division for reason of that howling noise they make.

Like you ,I wouldn’t want them back because I can’t stand the excessive swearing in their chants and they still have behavioral problems . |

Gary Monk appointed manager at Cambridge Utd. Iwonder if he will stay longer than Neil Harris. Not managed a side for 4 years. |

He had a bit of a rough time at Birmingham and Sheffield Wednesday I recall but he’s still only 44 and was highly regarded at Swansea and Middlesbrough so hopefully things will work out. |

How things change so quickly these days. Cambs Utd supporters have set up a poll to see who wants Gary Monk removed after two games with 6 and 4 nil losses. |

I remember them dropping out of the league before, it was new to me that those things happen, so have always kept an eye on them hoping against hope they regain there league status, glad they did as my soft spot for them is still there. Hope they get out of difficulty, would hate history to repeat it's self, Still don't like Scumend though. |
