Roy Hodgson Ready For Dogfight After Accepting Watford's "Siren Call"
Roy Hodgson is ready for the challenge of Watford's relegation dogfight after admitting he could not resist the "siren call from the mermaid". Former England boss Hodgson left his last job at Crystal Palace eight months ago amid speculation that he would retire. But the 74-year-old was appointed as Watford's third manager this season following Claudio Ranieri's sacking last month. The Hornets are languishing in 19th place in the Premier League, two points adrift of safety with 18 games remaining. Despite Watford's perilous position, Hodgson said their offer was too strong to resist as he aims to mastermind another escape act, having previously helped Palace, Fulham and West Brom avoid relegation from the top tier.
