Official: FPF suspend Carlos QueirozManager to miss Euro 2012 qualifiers against Cyprus and Norway The FPF have heard all the evidence and have made their decision. The country's leading footballing body has applied a one-month suspension and a 1000 euro fine against Carlos Queiroz for his actions towards the Anti-doping Authority.
The timing of the decision has to be considered very delicate as Portugal are only weeks away from playing their first two Euro 2012 qualifiers against Cyrpus on 3 September, followed by a visit to Oslo to face Norway four days later. The suspension results from allegations that Carlos Queiroz verbally abused members of the Anti-doping department when the team was in its training camp in Covilha preparing for the World Cup in South Africa. An inquiry was opened due to the accusations and now the FPF has pronounced that the former Manchester United assistant was out of line when dealing with the anti-doping members. Queiroz had a slew of high-profile figures testify on his behalf, which included Sir Alex Ferguson, Figo, Pinto da Costa and Luis Filipe Vieira, who all gave their backing to the Portugal number one. The decision could have been worse as Queiroz could have lost his position with the FPF, but compelling testimony form the aforementioned names most likely aided in his keeping hold of his job. Queiroz's assistant, Agostinho Olivieira, has been appointed by the FPF to look after the head coach proceedings for Portugal's next two matches. by Marco Pereira |

For people who want POrtuguese coach only then there is JOse MAnuel currently Angola coach I beleve. He has talked about the job if it were to be open and he said he would have no problem getting out of currenet contract. This was from rtp site few weeks ago. Scolari jis with Paleirmas in BRasil, Zico as someone alraedy said is taken.
We want to see POrtugal get to that next tier with the likes of Spain, Germany, suppose you could say Dutch at moment because of their WC. Sign Aragones 2 year contract he will get in players faces, get nost from them. Queiroz is great talent evaluator but players don't get inspired from him, he should be Under 17, 19, 21 coach or in role as some scouting department. Time to fight fire with fire bring the tiki taka and get Aragones he will have us playing lovely footy again
This situation has become dysfunctional and embarassing and quite possible CQ is hanging on a thread. Not sure how you can keep him as coach after all this. I was a CQ supporter because of his ability to develop players and thought and still do think the NT suffers from lack of quality players in certain positions that have nothing to do with coach but player ability.
Anyway, the debate about CQ has been decided by CQ's behavior.
Idiots!
Madail needs to go, NOW
Brasil still managed to get to the QFs with the burro Dunga in-charge. It is definitely a new Selecao under Menezes. We will win in 2014 and you will be sitting at home eating nice bacalhau.
It is funny how one or two posters criticize the Brasilian style of play when we are the most successful footballing nation.
And to the true Portuguese supporters (not the jealous ones), best wishes.
Good luck, you will need it.
To address the idiot who identifies themself as Brazil, suck a big fat one. Your boys didn't do much better in the WC. Just a bunch of over hyped dancing fools if you ask me. The only Brazil goal that impressed me was Thiagos own goal. The reason we show support for Brazil is because they are our Luso brothers and not enemies. Where would Brazil be without the Portuguese? Ask yourself that. Oh by the way, go find yourself a Brazilian website to entertain yourself on.
Qeiroz and his attorney will file some sort of appeal so I think he isnt just going to quit Were in some tough shape right now
you are the best
Oh, and "brazil", we don't cheer for you once Portugal crashes out. You guys didn't do anything great in the world cup either so you can suck it. Especially since you are supposedly "so superior" to Portugal, you have no reason to talk. With all that talent, you still underachieved.
But it's a national team afforded with highly qualified and world class players...why they're trying to make us look as Sweden or Croatia may be...By the way why don't they try the likes of ZICO or Leonardo...
It just looks like politics in our arab world....nobody can understand anything...and we the fans...we just look and hope for the best while the bosses aren't caring...
SO NOw if we slip up under one of the assustants in september we have to rely one queiroz to get us back. Unbelievable. I'm so so disappointed. Just because you can coach the youth team to youth championships doesn't mean the senior side players you will get best out of them. Damn fpf dropped the ball again. They better hope qualifiers go well. Ahhhh so upset
