Writing in the Mail on Sunday, Ian Stafford claims that Martin Johnson is set to walk away from his role as England manager following a revelatory review process.
Martin Johnson's future will be decided within days after further damaging details in the Mike Tindall affair were revealed to the England team manager during a bruising Twickenham inquiry into the World Cup debacle.
"Johnson, 41, is distraught after finding himself in the line of fire during last week’s two-day management review headed by the RFU’s professional rugby director, Rob Andrew. The manager’s coaching team, some of whom are certain to be axed following England’s disappointing World Cup, are trying to persuade him to
stay on.
"But Johnson, told at the review that England’s lucrative sponsorships deals have been thrown into jeopardy by the bad publicity over the World Cup, now believes his position has become untenable and he may decide to resign within the next few days."
