First, Amoruso - the only man who could make John Hartson look like Jinky Johnstone - went to Graeme Souness' Blackburn. And now Neil McCann is off to Gordon Strachan's Southampton.

And all this from a club with worse debts than Mike Tyson.

So Jim Leishman has returned to Dunfermline after a highly successful time at Livingston. Leishman and Jimmy Calderwood should make a formidable management team at East End Park, providing they don't fall out that is.

I mean, look at Lorenzo Amoruso, once a second rate Italian league no-hoper and now treading the boards in Blackburn panto.
