13 MARCH:
Manchester City boss Stuart Pearce refuses to say whether he had been interviewed about the England job.
Pearce is believed to be among the candidates for the job but said: "If I was or wasn't interviewed, I wouldn't tell anyone.
"I am sure the FA would want some form of discretion from whoever they speak to. All that matters is they pick the right man for the job."
Charlton boss Alan Curbishley tells the Daily Express he is not the only candidate following Sunday's revelations he had spoken to the FA about the job.
WHAT ARE THE MANAGERS SAYING?
Stuart Pearce:

Steve McClaren:
19 February - "If your country comes calling then you have to answer that call," said Boro chairman Steve Gibson.
Sam Allardyce:
3 March - "Everyone knows I would love to have the opportunity to be interviewed for the England job"
Luiz Felipe Scolari:
