He did a few years ago. But he also said more recently (January) that he regretted saying that and he doesn't feel like retiring at this moment.

"I don't feel like retiring at this stage and John Giles told me I was very silly to even bring it up and it was a stupid thing to say," he said.

"In fact it would have changed the dynamic between all of us if one of us left."

My predictions:
1. Germany for the Euros
2. Ireland will get out of the group
3. England won't
4. Dalglish to be quietly removed from his job during the Euros in the hope that no one notices it
5. Bill to get through the tournament without saying "Okey doke" once
6. Dunphy to turn up on the day of the Croatia match wearing a red and white tablecloth as a tie
7. Kagawa to United
8. Sigurdsson won't sign for Swansea
9. Fergie to ring me up and ask me to play CM next year. I'll decline on the basis that I love drinking pints too much
10. RVP to stay with Arsenal

8) Moyes will move on from Everton

CongoPowers · 08-05-2012 10:46pm

1) I was going to go for Spain in the Euros, but I reckon Germany will do it now Puyol is out.
2) RVP will stay.
3) Juve will spend big on a striker.
4) Dempsey and Dembele will be signed by other Premier League teams.
5) Keane will be WBA manager.
6) Agree with whoever said Madrid will sign a right back.
7) Milan will keep T-Silly and Ibra.
8) Barça won’t spend more than 20M on a player.
9) Dalglish won’t carry on as Liverpool manager.
10) Ireland won’t score at the Euros.

Samich · 08-05-2012 11:01pm

City will win the title
Man utd to come 2nd
Spurs to get 4th
Wolves to get relegated
Blackburn to get relegated
Bolton to get relegated
*This is technically the summer* :P
Ireland to get hammered by at least 4 goals in one of their matches
Euros top scorer is Van Persie
Poland to get to the semis

Jayob10 · 08-05-2012 11:41pm

1. Hodgson will have England playing some of the most cave man football seen, but they will progress further than usual

2. Van Persie will stay with Arsenal after a "will he won't he saga", calibre of new signings will persuade him to stay

3. Kenny will move upstairs or to an ambassadorial role

4. Ireland will finish second in their group in the Euro's and lose to England in the quarters.

5. Germany will win the tournament

6. Owen Coyle will take over at Villa after getting Bolton relegated and McLeish is sacked. Getting your club relegated from the EPL the season before will become a pre requisite to get the Villa job.

7. Gaitan to United, Hazard to City, Modric to Chelsea, M'Vila to Arsenal, Hoilett to Spurs, Castaignos to Liverpool

8. Chris Hughton will become West Brom boss

9. Gareth Bale will come close to signing for Barca before he decides on one more season with Spurs (before joining Barca the following season)

10. It will become apparent that the top clubs are not playing by Financial Fair play rules, and what the top clubs want, the top clubs will get from UEFA in the end.

Ireland to get one point.

Liverpool will make no big money moves.
Spain win at Euros.
RVP top scorer at Euros.
DeMatteo gone no matter what.
Karl Fletcher to become Villa manager after McLeish is sacked.
Martinez to another EPL club.
Bolton to go down.
Balotelli will do something really ****ed up.
Rangers will crash out of existence.
