Roy Hodgson is Shocked

Yet another cock-up at the border. Walking off a plane from Shanghai and waltzing straight into a hospital. Probably still picking the bat out of her teeth. Roy's had a guts-full of it.

It's easy to forget how little football means in the grand scheme of things, until a day like today comes along. Istanbul Airport suffering multiple terrorist attacks; dozens wounded; dozens dead. The world may forget but Roy remembers. Roy always remembers.

For any of you out there worried about a rudderless, directionless, Roy-less future; do not be troubled. Roy will be with you, always.

Heard a wee pony and trap that some of you dickless bastards think Roy's gone soft. Let me remind you that the Gaffer didn't go to your Hastings pudding, "let's all dress up like girls" school. He grew up on the streets of Croydon.

He tries to keep his chin up, but this world can get Roy down just like the rest of us. Even great men suffer.

Just saw old 'Arry down at The Tain and Drape; yet another offensive in the Middle East. Will it ever end....

Cincinnati Zoo you say? The moral conundrum of a gorilla life for a human life isn't as easy as it once appeared. Roy will need some time.

Roy finally got around to googling the zika virus. Fair to say he's worried about the upcoming trip to Brazil.

Just back from a getaway to Kiribati. The sinking island, climate change refugees, this isn't the world Roy thought he knew.

Roy just tuned into Al Jazeera - Ebola in the USA? Terrifying.

The death count rises on Mount Ontake. Roy watches on solemnly.

Roy just popped in for a pint with 'Arry who told him about the Taliban offensive in Afghanistan - a hundred killed.
