    ............ and then there are some who seem to last forever as a manager.

    This one has a long shelf life.

    I'm told every manager has, somewhere about his person, a small date stamp tattoo including the words 'only suitable for employment in Scotland or at QPR after this date'.

    Frank de Boer sacked by Palace after just four games at the insistence of the American owners. Four games? Absolutely insane. Roy Hodgson installed for at least a couple of weeks, I sincerely hope they lose every game between now and the end of the season.

    I'm surprised Hodgson hasn't been fired yet, not won a game this season.
