LOL Capello

I sent my friend a text message when news reached me about Fabio Capello quitting as England manager.

Ir read 'LOL Capello'.

I can't fault the guy. And here's why.

He was always going to be the fall guy when it came to Euro 2012.

When England lose - and trust me, they will lose - he will be blamed for quitting on them this close to the tournament. Had he stayed, he would have been at fault for being a lame duck coach.

He was always going to be in a lose-lose situation when John Terry was forced to give up his captaincy last week.

He now gets the summer off before he takes up his new post wherever that may be.
