AP/ New polls show that nine out of 10 Argentines DON'T want Diego Maradona back as coach of their national soccer team.
Maradona was seen to be almost pleading in a recent TV interview saying "I'd give my life" to have the job again.
He was fired after the team was defeated by Germany, 4-0 in the World Cup quarters.
91.1 per cent of about 10,000 in the newspaper Clarin's poll said they did not want him back. In the La Nacion newspaper, 93 per cent of 6,185 were against Maradona's return.
