    I hear Calderwood is on the way out at Forest (that's the thanks after getting promoted) with Billy Davies, Allardyce, Dowie and Boothroyd in the frame.

    So, another South Wales derby, another round of arrests, another kick in the teeth to the reputation of Welsh football fans everywhere. The game itself was excellent - end to end, both teams going for the 3 points, couple of red cards just to add to the drama. I just wish the so-called fans wouldn't keep ruining things for the majority of people. It really is becoming a joke now.

    I see the guy Giles unilaterally (supported by the muppet) interviewed for the Ireland job has parted company from Derby. Will Laughing Bill remind the two stooges of this? Mais non!

    Wolves lose at home (but at least the Preston goals were scored by Irishmen). I hope this is just a hiccup for Wolves but strong challenges on the way from Reading and Birmingham.

    Interestingly for SligoHornet and Irishfans that John Joe O'Toole is listed in the Poll of players whom Wolves' fans might like to sign.

    I still think he would benefit more by staying one more season at Watford......but,sadly, I think he will go and Wolves would be a better move (for him and Ireland) than warming the bench at Fulham.

    I see our old gaffer "Betty" Boothroyd is favourite for the carrot crunchers job

    Yes, another Championship manager bites the dust! Glen Roeder at Norwich. I saw them in the last game of the season in Sheffield and Wednesday won 4-1. Not much spirit about them. Funny how there is a merry go round for managers. Succeed, fail, sack, new job, fail, sack, new job, fail, sack, no job.....

    Shame for Roeder as he did well to get them out of trouble last year. Don't know what happened to them this year, Norwich were one of my tips for a possible play-off place.

    Gunn is now the caretaker manager. Meanwhile the Owls have signed Darren Potter on loan from Wolves until the end of the season.

    Really felt for the Burnley fans last night. Their first chance to visit Wembley in over 40 years and 2 and a half minutes away from getting there. To get back to 4-4 on aggregate after losing the first leg 4-1 was some achievement. Wonder why the away goal didn't count at fulltime rather than at the end of extra time

    I know but it's such a pity the UEFA rule wasn't in place.

    Burnley play nice football under Coyle. Pity he brought on Akimbiyi. He kept giving the ball away when Burnley badly needed to hang on to it.
