bovril Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Cue the 'mirror are usually spot on about Leicester' posts.
Simi Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Lennon's name would not even be mentioned on this forum if he hadn't played for Leicester. It's utter lunacy. Bolton have won four games this year.
Freesolo Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 "Former star Neil Lennon is keen on the job but the club's Thai owners are also considering turning to former Chelsea manager Hiddink" WTF is there to even consider?
4everfox Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 penfold what has he ever actually achieved and has he ever stayed anywhere more than 1 year? 1 time European Cup winner 6 time Eredivisie champion 1 time FA Cup winner Amongst others but those are his main achievements, with the most recent coming in 2009 with Chelsea.
Freesolo Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Lennon's name would not even be mentioned on this forum if he hadn't played for Leicester. It's utter lunacy. Bolton have won four games this year. yea I have already said that stop plagiarizing my work
Stevosevic Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Chelsea fans loved him. Maybe he's a better manager when he has a squad assembled for him, hence his achievements internationally. Who knows.
Simi Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 yea I have already said that stop plagiarizing my work Sorry Larkin.
4everfox Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 He certainly has had a great career, but would appointing an almost 70 year old show future planning. Can't imagine him doing more than 2 seasons. What I want is a manager who is going to develop us slowly and be here for the long haul, which looked like it was going to be Pearson until Tuesday afternoon. If its this or Lennon then I don't care if he's here for just one year frankly. And for those comparing Hiddink to Sven, when was Sven's last trophy won? 2000. When was the last time Hiddink won a trophy? 2009. And the time before that? 2006. He's hardly past it and would be a great short term appointment in my opinion. We haven't got time to carefully select a long term option and risk getting it wrong, lets play it safe and appoint somebody of Hiddink's calibre to establish ourselves or we risk ruining all the hard work of the past couple of years.
Simi Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 I'm taking the piss...... Hey, I was doing that too! Stop stealing my work.
Guest Lcfc82 Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Hiddink doesn't tend to hang around in the same job for long. Would be good if he could get Esteban to stay and eventually take over from him
dayday Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 If Hiddink was appointed manager he would demand a big transfer budget.

Agreed. Maybe what's best for us at this point is just someone to keep us in the division until we can get a good up-and-coming young manager in with a long-term plan. Whether Hiddink is the ideal short-term plan, who knows? To be honest, I would worry it would be like having Sven all over again. I'd be concerned that he'd have to change too much too soon, but then I think that would apply to just about everyone.
lcfcsnow Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Had a sneaky £10 at 25/1 when Tanner tweeted now the odds have shot down. I never win bets though
ARM1968 Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Hiddink with Cambiasso no2 would be awesome. Just not Lennon. Would prefer Moyes but it's unlikely.
Bagworthblue Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 That your mate at Bolton is unrealistic? it's hardly that unrealistic. Bolton have potential to be successful again. It isn't that long since they were in the PREM and there are hardly a string of vacancies in the prem either right now or likely soon apart from possibly the bottom 3 - that would consider Pearson. His PR issues will put off a few clubs and he's not yet got the stock to be the next Liverpool manager or similar. We know he is a very good manager, we know he is far better than portrayed but realistically his next move is a championship club with potential
Stevosevic Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 He'll do for two years to consolidate and build profile of club
Leicesterpool Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 If Hiddink was appointed manager he would demand a big transfer budget. That shouldn't be a problem for our owners
GaelicFox Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Hiddink is a much better manager than Sven. Really ?? Apart from Eindhoven his club career has been hugly patchy
ramboacdc Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 well a lot happened in the 2 hours between me leaving work and getting home eh? hiddink eh?
Guest Cujek Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Gus hiddink 792 game - 57.58 % win ratio Sven 1000 games 51.9% win ratio Pretty comparable statisticaly I guess. Some others... Sam allardyce 921 games 39.31% Neil lennon 266 games 64.66% Jurgen klopp 588 games 48.98% And for a laugh George graham 862 games 45.71%
psychonaut Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 well a lot happened in the 2 hours between me leaving work and getting home eh? hiddink eh? You actually work? at a job?
ramboacdc Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 You actually work? at a job? i know! it shocks me too!
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 In the know, Neil Lennon will be approached by Leicester in the next few days. He is quoted today by BBC, as the favourite, but although a great player, would be my third or fourth choice. He could prove himself more than capable however, if he were to come.
