The question likely to be widely asked in the coming weeks and months: where now for the French national football team? That doesn't interest me, though. So, my question, therefore, is where now for Raymond Domenech?

Over the last three summers, I've grown rather fond of him and his baffling ways. He's almost inevitably bonkers, and just as certain is the fact he's going to be sacked, if he hasn't already been (my finger is well and truly on the pulse). My hope is that a Premiership team will come in for him, so as to prevent him dropping off of the English football fan's radar. I think I'd like to see him at Blackburn. If he's willing to, he could whop out the ouija board and have a word in Jack Walker's shell-like, give himself the advantage?
