El Tel RIP

Yes I know a scum manager but think he was actually pretty level headed and never seemed to be one of them per se, and always cane across well as a cheeky London type, better than the crunt redknapp.
Probably best England manager of recent times as well by far along with Robson.

I'll go along with that - yes he was sometimes a bit cocky but he was brave and forward thinking coach who wasnt afraid to go abroad and learn.

Even as an Irishman I enjoyed his euro 96 team and no doubt he was a great manager

RIP El Tel

As stated he actually came across as a decent guy

Was heavily linked with becoming our manager prior to George getting the job.

He must have been half decent as he actually won a trophy there too

Was George Graham’s best man at his wedding later in the day after an Arsenal v scum derby at Highbury

RIP

Managed the scum and was a bit dodgey in business (allegedly...but that is why England got rid). Again allegedly.
Scum if you are an arsenal supporter or worked with him it seems...
Just because someone died doesnt make them good. Wanker in life...wanker in death

Media darling because he liked a soundbite and a microphone. Didn't really achieve much as a manager despite the media constantly repeating the line that he was a brilliant manager. He was probably a bit of a laugh and got on with the players and seemed friendly and approachable to the public but really, he was the Bruce Forsyth of football managers. "Nice to kick it, to kick it, nice. Good game, good game." Then there were the dodgy dealings and tax issues which never really got looked into too much because of his mates in the media.

Hazell was good !

RIP Terry, always liked him, came across as a nice guy.

As others have said he managed England at a time that I actually liked watching international football and they played some great football, the best I've seen England play anyway.

I watched a YouTube video of him from the age of 16, a proper football man.

His old man was a gooner and was best mates with GG, best man at wedding.

As Stuart says had things worked out differently would have been our manager before GG

A bit late with this post. Terry was one of a Chelsea side that I would watch when we were playing away. Osgood, Tambling etc. I can't remember. Terry would also join in with us Sunday mornings at regents Park for a kick about. He was a few years older but would always give us advice if we asked. Georgie Armstrong would also usually be there. I think they were good friends. I knew a couple of the Aussie team when he was coaching over here & they loved him - just thought he talked 'funny'. I try not to think about his 'Scum' days.
R.I.P.Terry.
