      19) His celebrations against Everton during his second spell (particularly during the 3-0 & 2-1 at Wembley) - Just pure joy

      Think a lot of our recent managers in the 21st Century weren't too arsed about Everton, for understandable reasons to be fair, they've been pretty mediocre for years. But you could tell it meant more to Kenny, having played in an era when both teams were two of the best sides in Europe, he still got a massive kick over getting one over on the blue sh*te!

      51) Ferguson whinging to the press in the boot room, in walks Kenny with his youngest daughter in his arms and turns to the press referring to his daughter "She talks more sense than him" and walks out leaving Ferguson fuming.
