Keane has had the dreaded vote of confidence from the board, so expect him to be gone be the end of the month.

b4st4rds are off to India for a freindly this week as a treat for their on field perfomances :lol:

And what's the odds of Coyle being gone by the end of the month too. 6 straight defeats, so I think maybe another 3 and it will be bye bye. Haaa, see ya Judas. :D

I bet you're loving the bottom two being your Lancastrian rivals. Could make for some cracking Championship games next season.

Yeah sorry. Didn't realise they were in the wrong thread. Well for this season anyway.

True, we only have Blackpool this year with PNE dropping down a division. Local derbies are always the best games for atmosphere

Leeds put Doncaster to the sword this morning. Forgot it was on live so i only caught the last 20 minutes but Doncaster are garbage. Might aswell relegate them now, they are so far out of their depth. Leeds just going about business quietly and moving up table.

I don't know that Leeds can ever go about their business quietly in the lower divisions. Expectation is their constant companion.

Burnley conceded a very late goal to go down to Reading at home. Was a bit suprised at result, thought the Clarets would have grabbed a point at least

Leicester have sacked Sven Goran Eriksson after their 3-0 thrashing by Millwall.
Favourite for the job is ex manager Martin O'Neill or Mark Hughes.

:( I actually like Sven (its a Lazio thing, can't help it)
The problem with Barcelona is that I like fish and chips but they had to turn it into calamari and patatas

Poor decision by the club IMO. Leicester are 5 points from the automatic promotion spots and 2 points from playoff spots. All teams will have a bad game or a bad patch of form during the season, bit early to push the panic buttons.

As a leicester fanatic it is the right move. Given the massive $$$ spent on boosting the squad it is not acceptable losing to both Bristol City and Millwall at home, who to be fair are really struggling. If you are serious about auto promotion or even playoffs then thosed games must be 3 points.

Also lot's of stories about player discontent at the Foxes mainly due to the formation and game style Sven was using. Clearly it wasn't working.
Piss weak SANFL and the CLOWNS who run it.

Brum didn't play that well by all reports.
Leeds had 12 corners and about as many shots. Controlled the game, just couldn't score.
Hopefully Birmingham go well into the Europa League, then that will take a toll on their league campaign with injuries and fatigue..
It's Somma Time!
