They've also reported that Neil Lennon is interested in the job. Ditto Moyes. So they're basically ringing up out-of-work managers and saying, "would you be interested in the Leicester job?" and unsurprisingly most of those out-of-work managers are answering in the affirmative.
SheppyFox Posted 25 February 2019 Posted 25 February 2019 Lennon?! We’re sorry Claude, please come back
AKCJ Posted 25 February 2019 Posted 25 February 2019 **** it I’d have Lennon until he end of the season. We aren’t getting a top half finish so we may as well just enjoy having a club legend at the helm. Might help humble the likes of Kasper and Vardy too.

Plus we binned him off for another coach, and now that we've sacked the manager we're going to go back to him, cap in hand, and ask him to come in short term till the end of the season? Just don't see it happening to be honest. If we're going to have an interim appointment till the end of the season I'd rather have an experienced manager who doesn't know the players, than an inexperienced manager who does. You'd be surprised how much Appleton was doing last season at times until Claude closed him down.
lifted*fox Posted 25 February 2019 Posted 25 February 2019 sacking puel off and ending up with allardyce is like sacking off the EU to go through with brexit. a total waste of time with no long-term benefit whatsoever. astounded that anyone would be in favour of it, tbqh.
SouthStandUpperTier Posted 25 February 2019 Posted 25 February 2019 Good grief. Stop the world, I want to get off.

We need to win some football matches in the immediate future pal.
Ric Flair Posted 25 February 2019 Posted 25 February 2019 The only interim I would entertain is someone who won't use their experience to try and worm the gig for longer like Allardyce, Moyes etc. Appleton ticks all the boxes as it will enhance his reputation and he knows the current players.
Stevosevic Posted 25 February 2019 Posted 25 February 2019 Don't know why people are getting worked up about people saying they want the job It doesn't mean we have any interest in them.

Wonder if we're still paying him, maybe we can just call him back from "gardening leave" and get him to work for the same money.

woddyuk Posted 25 February 2019 Posted 25 February 2019 Rodgers obviously top of the list if we can wait with a caretaker in charge until end of season. Lennon perhaps, then he and Rogers can swap places in May? Surprised Edie Howe not on that list. Outside bets Why not Chris Wilder /Lee Johnson instead of the same old same old usual suspects on the list ?
Babylon Posted 25 February 2019 Posted 25 February 2019 Just now, Cruss5 said: Appleton with Huth helping him out. Get Appleton, Was, Huth, Steve Howard, Mike Galloway and just f*** everyone up.
Ric Flair Posted 25 February 2019 Posted 25 February 2019 Appleton could be a very good manager in the making anyway, i'd take the chance.

Hmmmm not so sure they'd be compatible but he might be running out of managerial offers ala Roy Keane so stranger things have happened.

Exactly this, might as well save the money invested in an interim manager and use it to buy someone out of their club if that's what we suspect may need to happen. There are already (SeanfromEnderby) murmurs that Celtic wouldn't stand in Rodgers way, as long as we paid the release fee and he was happy to go.

True, they've had a poor run of results too, (beat us easily earlier in season) but still above us in the table presently and given a 50/50 choice Puel v Howe which would most go for? Anyhow still surprised he's not on the list at all. I'd have said 12/1 shot

He is so close to the players, it would be just like letting them manage the team. Think they need an experienced no nonsense stern manager, ship up or ship out
