    Henning Berg sacked by Blackburn, along with his entire coaching staff.

    It looks as though they're too far ahead of the danger zone to be serious candidates for the drop. But after the way the "fans" treated Steve Kean, and Sam Allardyce before him, I'd say that they deserve it.

    (sorry for the lack of Christmas spirit... but they do)

    The second casualty in two days.

    Sky Sports News @SkySportsNews Blackburn confirm the sacking of manager Henning Berg with immediate effect

    That seems like a failed experiment, which has cost the club half a season and a fair few points. Who on earth will they get in this time?

    No need to apologise - I suspect that everyone else thinks the same, apart from a few oddbobs in Lancashire.

    NNW - According to the Midlands correspondant on 5-Live this morning, this is a popular appointment. Popular with the local hacks as they like him apparently, but I am not so sure about the supporters.

    I'm sure that he's nice to his family and gets his fair share of rounds in, but professionally I can't see why anyone would be excited about it.

    Just read this on SSN - a Bollywood star to become coach. Blackburn owners deny it, so there is probably a degree of truth in it.<laugh>

    The Sepp Blatter quote here is interesting

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/20866989

    (nope, he's not talking about a laid back approach to racism, telling gays not to have sex, or suggesting that female footballers should wear fewer clothes)

    Oops! But I dont see how they could have a replay for this when we were denied a replay for the ghost goal. Talk about double standards!!!

    Because we weren't in a position to offer up generous financial inducements in those days.

    Maybe no great surprise but Wolves have sacked their manager.

    Wonder if Malky will lose his job - bigger shame losing to Macclesfield. :)
