Heyrettin out at Maidstone, Elokobi caretaker. 4 months after the game ended still got 2 in post. Ironically my last 3 standing are/were all non-league, wasn't expecting that given the amount of money around at that level. Maybe they can't afford to sack people.

Part of my aversion to it stems from knowing how capable he had been up to then. All those award-winning albums of the 70s and only 2-3 years previously he had produced Hotter than July, which had 4 pretty decent top 10 singles. I know he did have some (mostly very minor ) hits afterwards but I can't remember any of them - my recollection is he pretty much killed his career/musical credibility with one (IMHO) awful song. There are several better 'last 10 minutes at the disco quick grope' songs on this list - notably Move Closer and the FGTH Power of Love.

Just spotted I failed to subtract the -3 I gave the Crowd from its total so it should now have 12. Can the next person incorporate, thanks.

My teams are all present and correct, thanks.

Had to re-do this twice when other people voted just as I was about to.. 28 George Michael – Careless Whisper 28 Madonna – Into the groove +1 25 Eurythmics – There must be an angel (playing with my heart) +1 22 Whitney Houston – Saving all my love for you 23 Nena — 99 red balloons +1 21 Wham – Wake me up before you go go 21 Dead or Alive – You spin me round (like a record) 21 Feargal Sharkey — A good heart 21 Duran Duran — The Reflex 21 Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Two Tribes 21 Midge Ure - If I Was 21 Philip Bailey & Phil Collins – Easy Lover 21 Frankie goes to Hollywood – The power of love +1 20 Paul McCartney - Pipes of Peace 20 Frankie goes to Hollywood – Relax 20 Stevie Wonder – I just called to say I love you 20 Wham – Freedom 20 Chaka Khan – I feel for you 20 Jim Diamond – I should have known better 20 Foreigner – I want to know what love is 20 Elaine Paige & Barbara Dickson – I know him so well 20 Phyllis Nelson – Move closer 20 UB40 & Chrissie Hynde – I got you babe 20 Jennifer Rush – The power of love 20 Shakin´ Stevens – Merry Christmas everyone 20 Wham — I`m your man 18 Sister Sledge – Frankie -2 17 Lionel Richie – Hello 14 Paul Hardcastle – 19 15 Crowd - You'll Never Walk Alone -3 12 David Bowie & Mick Jagger – Dancing in the street 11 Band Aid - Do They Know it's Christmas? 0 USA for Africa – We are first out -1 Apart from the charity singles, the naff (sister sledge) Frankie and the credibility-endingly trite Stevie wonder song, not too many obvious quick kills,

I agree with that bit at least.

Working on the principle that the ones I've never heard of are to be avoided because people who take this sort of thing much more seriously than me know what they're doing, here goes 1. Donald Trump 2. Vladimir Putin 3. Phil Collins 4. Ozzie Osborne 5. Janey Godley 6. Yoko Ono 7. Ted Kaczynski 8. Shane McGowan 9. Willie Nelson 10. Billy Connolly 11 Clint Eastwood 12 Prunella Scales 13 Rhod Gilbert 14 Shannen Doherty 15 Eva Marie Saint 16 Dick van Dyke 17 Rupert Murdoch 18 Buzz Aldrin 19 Linda Nolan 20 Bill Cosby 21 Glynis Johns 22 James Whale 23 Mel Brooks 24 Randy Jackson 25 Stanley Baxter subs Cleo Laine, M J Fox Where's Gazza, by the way? He's always on here...
