85th, by my reckoning.

Stuart Pearce starts with Forest on July 1st.
Louis Van Gaal starts with Man Utd when Holland's world cup challenge ends
Jose Riga is due to sign his Blackpool deal this weekend
Leeds, West Brom, Fulham and Southampton are all still without managers as far as I know.

Huh. I could have sworn it was reported he had left. Yup, 86th it is.

With Appleton replacing Gary Waddock at Oxford last friday, Sami has moved up one place to 85th!

That's for two reasons.

1) They haven't removed Sannino from 69th, which would bump Sami up to 83rd on their list.
2) Despite listing Stuart Pearce by his start day of July, even though the deal was signed months earlier, they have listed Van Gaal as starting in May, even though Man Utd didn't confirm him as taking charge until mid July. Which would put him below Sami, and bump Sami up to 82nd.

Thanks Acker79, I guess it's down to interpretation etc of the data. I prefer yours over the LMA's!

Carlisle United have sacked manager Graham Kavanagh following Saturday's 5-0 defeat by Cambridge. A club statement said "club captain Paul Thirlwell and goalkeeping coach Tony Caig have agreed to take the training sessions and handle team selection matters in the coming days."

Up another place

With James Beattie parting company with Accrington Stanley, Sami breaks into the 70s, making it up to 79th.
