Former England manager Glenn Hoddle has followed Harry Redknapp out of the door at Queens Park Rangers, resigning as head coach just hours after Redknapp stepped down as manager and leaving Tim Sherwood the odds on favourite to take over at Loftus Road.

Admitting he was "shocked and surprised" by Redknapp's decision to quit, Hoddle said in a statement on Tuesday evening: "We all know football is a results-orientated business but I always felt that given a few more games, Harry could have turned it around down there at the bottom."
