Will Kane come on straight away?



Don't see why not. Though Roy might think this is a good time to reward players, let the strikers potentially get a few goals.

Will that last one go down as a own goal though?

I guess he should get it as on target but not sure if Euro rules are same as ours.

He should get 20/25 minutes if still at least a 2 goal lead.

I see the end of that trailer for the John Barnes life story had him playing the racist card to explain his lack of opportunities in management. I absolutely loved him as a footballer at Watford and Liverpool but his forays into management were nothing short of terrible, and the guy was clearly never cut out for it.

Kenny got him the job. And to be fair a lot of world class players walk into good management jobs and dont cut it at management level.

The Celtic job is big one for a manager with no experience.
