We could do a lot worse surprised he isn't being linked with any of the current jobs?

Not doubt he is a decent manager.
For me though, I dont get the love in regarding Hoddle, he's been out of the managerial spotlight for a while.

Brazil has just been on about him on talksport saying he can't believe he's not back in the game, his focus is all on football now and not faith healing and all that. On another note duberry was saying boskamp was one of the best managers he's worked with.

Hoddle is a good shout. But only if he came with Eileen Drewery to advise on team selection, formation and tactics.

It would be more fun to see him in charge of Britain's Paralympics team's preparations for Rio.

Would he be promoting removing the disabled section to add extra seats I wonder?

How many years has been out of the game? how many other clubs had the option of taking him on and then thought, 'hang on he's shite, lets find someone better'?

Could be a controversial appointment.
Can you imagine his interview prior to playing Arsenal?
"The reason Aaron Ramsey is now a quadriplegic is because in his former life, he was probably a guard at Treblinka."

there's one very good reason why no one wants him anymore, i believe he's being punished for something he did in a previous life

Glenn Hoddle has never been out of the game. Anyone with a half decent knowledge of football would know that he has been running his own academy since 2008 developing young players, something that Stoke have not exactly been renowned for. The ability to develop young players has become absolutely essential right now, due to the introduction of the fair play rules and Hoddle's approach to focusing on player development seems an innovative and logical one.
His win ratio as England manager was over 60% which is up there with the best, he has never managed a team that has suffered relegation and has a strong belief in playing attractive football. He is well respected within the game, has a huge network of contacts worldwide, is also very highly regarded by many of the England players that worked with him at the time, who felt he was tactically very astute.
It seems that a great many fans at Stoke didn't want Pulis anymore, claiming he played unattractive football, was tactically poor and would have got us relegated. Hoddle would appear to be the polar opposite to this.
And with regard to Pulis, I personally feel he did a very good job indeed at Stoke City. It took Alex Ferguson (arguably the greatest manager of all time) 5 years before he even won a trophy at Man Utd. One could say 6 poor months out of 7 very successful years for Pulis, following 23 years of considerable embarrassment and abject failure, (including 2 visits the 3rd tier of English football) would be worthy of considerable gratitude.
Anyhow, I really do hope Stoke make a high quality appointment that can take the club forward in the short and long term but there does not appear to be an abundance of obvious candidates and while I am not suggesting Stoke should try to appoint Glenn Hoddle, I certainly feel the club could do a hell of a lot worse than him.

Glen Hoddle eh? They'd love him when he paid one of his visits to one of the club's main charities - the Donna Louise Children's Hospice. He'd not just sign autographs, he could explain to the kids and their parents what they had done wrong in a previous life to be needing Hospice care!

Does anyone even know if Hoddle wants to be a club manager anymore? It's not as if he's linked with any available job ever is he?

Might have dreamt this, but I'm sure in an interview with Brazil he didn't rule it out. Problem is, long time out of the English league, AND, would he be tempted to introduce a glut of his academy players? Very gifted player, and was developing into a good England manager - all this Drury / fruitloop stuff is a bit out of date, we've all made mistakes haven't we? If PC and co are talking about a chnage of direction, please lets' not appoint failures AKA Hughes / Martinez, for the love of Stan
