Roy's supporters often refer to how long he's kept us in the Premiership, as if it's almost for ever. In fact, come May, it'll be four seasons.

Doesn't sound much, but since World War 2 only Bert Head (66-73) and Steve Coppell (first spell 84-93) have served Palace longer (though not in the Premiership).

But that got me thinking, how does Roy's stint compare with other current Premiership managers? If anyone has the time (which I have) and inclination (which I haven't) to find out, I'd be interested in the answer. One for you, Willo? I'm sure it wouldn't take you long.

Well , that's soon solved. Thanks.

I had guessed he'd be higher than that.

with the players & money at his disposal, Croydon-Roy is doing a fantastic job.

which of the following would do a better job ?

- jose mourinho
- Roy Keane

- Big fat Sam
- neil Lennon

- Arsene Wenger

etc etc..
