It is Roy Hodgson ahead of Redknapp

Now there is an end to speculation as the Three Lions of England now have a new Manager. Don't take a guess, because you might just goof. 
After the departure of Fabio Capello as England Manager in February 2012, the English FA have been scouting for a replacement. Tottenham’s Harry Redknapp had been considered the favourite but the FA targeted Roy Hodgson due to his international experience, as he has overseen positions with Finland, Switzerland and United Arab Emirates.
The 64 years old has been appointed, granted a four-year deal and will now begin his preparations for England's Euro 2012 campaign - where they face Ukraine, Sweden and France in Group D - ahead of friendly matches versus Norway and Belgium.
He will remain in charge of West Brom for their final two Premier League matches of the season, against Bolton and Arsenal, before being released from his contract at the Hawthorns.
Sometimes, the man who reports a case first to the Police may not necessarily be adjudged winner. Sorry Harry for the distraction if any.
