When Nige talks, you listen.

 

   

 

This man is incredible. I have so much respect for him and what he did for us. 

 

He needs to be a pundit more often. 

 

Leicester loves you more than you will know.

Will give that a listen on the train tomorrow. 

No tippy tappy is such a shit name for a podcast, maybe it wasn't Sam's choice but bloody hell it reeks of bitterness.

I think it's probably a pisstake.

 

Nige nails it (as always) regarding certain managers, usually the older managers having a certain stigma, often getting labelled dinosaurs.

 

Personally they're often more pragmatic then the modern day manager.

Problem with managers like Nige is the attention span of the modern game. You just don’t get 2-3 years to build a team anymore, or very rarely. You need to have success almost instantly or you get the chop.

Give him the DoF job. It’s such an obvious and right fit.

Agreed. He needed plenty of loyalty from those above through many rough patches with us. Times in both reigns when our teams lost their heads. 

 

I think his persona is something that can easily be taken the wrong way by players and fans alike and I can see why he has had a couple of quick dismissals because of that.

Came across great in Allardyce's podcast. Thoroughly enjoyed listen.

Jeez! I just realised that if it weren't for Big Sam we would not have won the Premier league.

Even when you get success in the first season (Enzo) you still get calls to sack them!

It was good to hear Nige but the podcast itself is dreadful. Allardyce contradicts himself a billion times throughout about VAR and management, and Pike is a terrible presenter.

 

My favourite Nigeism though was him playing cricket for his local village team 🥰🥰🥰
