I have a couple of acquaintances who are different colour/race from me so how can I be ever considered a fascist? And that salute I was just trying to point out the error in Malinga's bowling action!

I suppose for now that Sunderland only care about staying up this season. But whenever Di Canio's name has cropped up on here I have always said whoever employs him, it will end in tears sooner rather than later. Also, I am far from convinced his personality and man management style will work on PL players.

While I don't think he'll be a particularly good long term appointment (by virtue of the fact that hes completely mental) I'm really worried that he'll be able to bollock his players into getting enough results to get over the line.

In fact, given O'Neill's tactical shortcomings and the way he teams cant play past march, I would've been happier if he'd stayed put

I think it will end in tears too.

At least he will make the training run on time.

It's a cracker!

So, a day after O'Neill gets the boot, Warnock looks let to leave Dirty Leeds.

Hmmm...

Worst of luck at Deadend Road Martin!

@BroadcastMoose: O'Neill back to Leicester is already being rumoured - next few days could be interesting

Interesting, I can see that happening too. Leicester have been on a dire run haven't they?

Plus, when BroadcastMoose speaks, you have to take notice.

I don't know what it is, but I've always thought Person comes across as a bit of a bellend.

Agreed, he makes out he knows more than he really does.

Seems mon gave Ellis short his word that he would work hard to improve things after the defeat at qpr had left his chairman furious - but then rather than working away on the training ground mon wasnt seen for several days until turning up on Thursday for a training session - according to reports that was the final straw for short.

Cloughie was good enough to turn up now and again for a training session and get away with it but mon is no Brian clough!

Indeed Eastie as Lloyd Bentsen said to micro fuckwit Dan Quayle in 1988 Presidential Election. '....Senator - you are No Jack Kennedy...'

He's about to leave due to a lack of funds.

Every season.
