18 down ... 74 to go

SUNDERLAND’S Roy Keane is the 18th managerial casualty among 92 English league clubs so far this season ...

SEPTEMBER: Kevin Bond (Bournem’th), Alan Curbishley (W Ham); Kevin Keegan (Newcastle), Keith Downing (Cheltenham), Alan Buckley (Grimsby), Geraint Williams (Colchester), Lee Sinnott (Port Vale).

OCTOBER: Iain Dowie (QPR), Juande Ramos (Spurs), Harry Redknapp (Portsm’th).

NOVEMBER: John Ward (Carlisle), Aidy Boothroyd (Watford), Stan Ternent (Huddersfield), Simon Davies (Chester), Maurice Malpas (Swindon), Steve Holland (Crewe), Alan Pardew (Charlton).

DECEMBER: Roy Keane (Sunderland).

4 bosses in peril

PAUL INCE — Blackburn have lost five of their last six matches and face leaders Liverpool tomorrow. No wins in nine have put them in the drop zone and left Incey in the firing line after just six months as boss.

MARK HUGHES — Manchester City have won nearly half their games under Sparky but many fans are yet to fully embrace the United legend. City are struggling for consistency and their wealthy Arab owners are a bit of an unknown quantity.

GARY MEGSON — Did a great job keeping Bolton up last season but has never really won over the Reebok fans since his unpopular appointment 13 months ago. Four wins from five in November has taken some of the heat off.

GIANFRANCO ZOLA — Three clean sheets in a row have halted West Ham’s slide after a disastrous run threatened to bring a quick end to his reign. His strong Chelsea links mean Upton Park fans will take some winning over, though.

I'm sure a few more will go before the end of the month.

Has Ince even got his coaching badges?

I wonder why he still has the job? Southate and Roeder in similar circumstances immediately begun the required courses.

A good twenty minutes worth ;D

What was even better was that all around us, mums and kids all joined in quite happily ;D

Also, when we started "we hate thingyney reds" to the mob to the right of us, the whole ground joined in, quality!

They sang "he's french, he's white, he kicked the thingyney nutse, cantona"...quick as a flash, the retort, "he's french, he's nuts, he's never on the pitch, cantona"...brilliant!

I lost my son briefly under the giant flag before kick off as well.

PE:- thingyney? can't type c*ckney then eh! Waht a c*ck!

Oh, and nuts in place of sh*t as well then!
