Brown and out

Never let it be said that we don't hold grudges. It was with great amusement that we read today of the Mackem Tango Man's sacking by Preston. Having proven incapable of keeping the Lilywhites in the Championship, he's been given the boot for their steady downward slide from the summit of League One. The club's move may have been prompted by the arrival of that most unlovable of chaps Peter Ridsdale - if so, then I'm warming to him ever so slightly.
