Time to go Roy, time to go...

Aye, first managerial casualty of 2011, gotta be at Anfield.

Stoked for the Keegan-esque return of King Kenny.

Liverpool haven't sacked a manager since the 50's, though there may have been one or two who have left 'by mutual consent'; these usually happen during the close season. Roy Evans was the last to resign mid-season after his work-share with Houllier didn't work out, back in '98.

 

For these reasons, I dismiss any notion that the first managerial casualty will be at Anfield. I reckon it's more likely to be in London - SW6 to be more precise.

Craven Cottage or Stamford Bridge? Don't just sit on the fence there with your SW6

Aye well, however they spin it, he's gone and nobody's talking about it in postive career terms for Roy. He could always ring up Stockport County who just sacked Paul Simpson.

You are Mystic Meg and I claim my £5...

Ah well, can't win 'em all, though my money's on SW6 for an actual sacking. (Stamford Bridge for the pedantic guests).

Back in the old country for a short while, I took Junior Honez to Wrexham's two home games on Monday and yesterday and I'm glad to report six points, two clean sheets, Wrexham in a playoff position and a young 'un that had a great time singing, shouting and yelling at the ref. Great stuff.

C'mon the Reds!

It would probably be more at home here.

Carlisle 4 - 0 Huddersfield

 

So, that's 90 minutes away at Huddersfield standing between us and a sixth appearance in this final. All being well I'll be able to give a cheery wave to DDT as he settles into his seat at the other end of the stadium.

Did you hear the one about the Englishman, the Scotsman and the Irishman... and the Swede, the Congolese, the Frenchman, the Spaniard, the German, the Norwegian, the Croatian, the Paraguayan, the Canadian, the American, the Slovakian, the Romanian, the Chilean, the Cameroonian, the Austrian, the Senegalese, the Zimbabwean, the Grenadian, the Dutchman, the Czech and the Uzbek?

[maryportfuncity 10,717]

Nope, but I heard that in the interests of representing a range of choices in terms of sexuality Aston Villa were proud to field a forward line that is Young, Keane and Bent.

This reminded me of Baddiel & Skinner's Fantasy Football show from 19whatever; one or t'other showed a 1960's Villa program showing a line-up consisting of Brown, Arce and Hole. So I googled it (them). Sadly, according to the BBC, they never actually played together (right at the end of the article).

If a deal to get a young Irish defender on loan in the late 80s had gone through, Oldham would have had a centre-back partnership of Donachie Babb.

In the match mentioned, Charlton's back four was Young Fish Costa Fortune.

Wem-ber-ley, Wem-ber-ley...we're the famous Carlisle United and we're going to Wem-ber-ley...though sadly we won't be able to give DDT a cheery pre-kick-off wave.
