Johnson steps down as England boss

Martin Johnson, captain of the World-cup winning side of 2003, has stepped down as England manager after the terrible World Cup, in which a number of players broke rules and they crashed out to France in the quarter-finals. The 41-year-old won 84 caps for England as a player, and had a good record as a boss.

JOHNSON'S ENGLAND RECORD

• Games coached - 38

• Wins - 21

• Defeats - 16

• Draws - 1

• Points for - 826

• Points against - 652

• Winning rate - 55.3%

Graham Henry, who recently quit as New Zealand boss and wanted a job with England, is a favourite to take the position.

With Johnson England won the six nations, but it was his only success as manager.

What do you think will happen to him now? He is a very good manager, but who could he go to?
