[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 990014, member: 73144"] Nope. You reap what you sow with the media. Jones plays the media, he says a lot, much of which is provocative or downright crass and can scarcely complain when the media bite back. He’s had plenty of credit when things have gone well and if he doesn’t like the heat he’s free to get out of the kitchen. The press shouldn’t genuflect and some of his more bonkers ideas would have attracted serious scrutiny anywhere. Gareth Southgate has a higher profile job which has destroyed some of his predecessors. He’s engaged with the media, been polite, considered, open and logical and quietly got on with doing an impossible job very effectively. He realises the media interest but hasn’t sought to take them on or game them. He hasn’t got a free pass from the media but he does get a fair hearing. [/QUOTE]
