Has done well. originally moved over here to be closer to his son who was playing footy with a scholarship at a nearby college ( university). He’s left that college and is playing for charlottes development team but isn’t getting by many games. Whole family might come back.. 1
BrilliantFox Posted 11 February Posted 11 February Didn't want Hassenhuttl, but at least he'd be able to guarantee safety.
Lambert09 Posted 11 February Posted 11 February I think Hassenhutl would be a welcome appointment. One of the few that I’d like to get a good pre-season under and would be able to build. I know we are in a sorry state but I still don’t want to go down the fire fighter route.

Or would there be a fear he would come with him? I think the only real reason I’d want smith is the potential Walsh might come and save our sorry board 1

jamfox Posted 11 February Posted 11 February Just put £5 on Ralph , the odds have shorted – there is probably about 50 quid and BOGOF voucher on this in total – all from Foxtalk

BrilliantFox Posted 11 February Posted 11 February Just now, Danizen said: would he suffer the same fate with the 9-0? Its been so long since then, hopefully we don't find any reasons to bring it back. He can start by erasing that memory by beating Southampton in the FA Cup on the weekend. 1

Ultimately , if cooper had have won a few more game very few folks would have given a f@ck, same with Ralph if we get some hammerings 0-9 will become a toxic joke if he keeps us up and pushed next season with some good performances then again very few people will give a f@ck 3
Chelmofox Posted 11 February Posted 11 February How do you think Ralf would go about the job. Players dont look ready to play that fancy German giga stuff. But we have to move away from 4-3-3 with Luke, Riccy, Fats and Stephi. Would be a tough start for him.

TheGoldenGod Posted 11 February Posted 11 February 14 minutes ago, BrilliantFox said: Didn't want Hassenhuttl, but at least he'd be able to guarantee safety. No one guarantees safety. Like everyone before him...he'll be stunned at what this lot are capable of doing during a match! 2

RoboFox Posted 11 February Posted 11 February So, there's been no serious leaks thus far? No credible journos have had information about what the club is doing and all we've seen is a load of guff about Maresca and a handful of lazy "articles" explaining how the betting markets operate? Journalists always get wind of prospective manager appointments and yet it's basically been tumbleweed since the sacking. These ****ing morons at the club haven't got a clue what they're going to do about this, do they?

He let a team ship 9 goals twice which shows you how fragile the mentality is under his teams. That's the absolute last thing we need. And I'm saying that as somebody who doesn't mind him. The only way we stay up, is if the players take some responsibility. Maybe an outside voice helps them do that but it's still going to be down to them for the next few months 2

Thebluefox85 Posted 11 February Posted 11 February I know last night was rough on the fans but please Hassenhuttl would be a disaster at Leicester.

What's your reasoning behind this ? is it just the couple of massive spankings he got at Southampton or do your have other insights ? Also , what realistic manager are you wanting ? I’m not being argumentative I’m genuinely curious Edited 11 February by jamfox
Deeg67 Posted 11 February Posted 11 February Ralf is at the high end of realistic options for us at this point. He's a solid, competent if unspectacular tactician and a good man-manager. No one guarantees safety from where we are but he's as likely to keep us up as anyone we might possibly hire, and not someone you'd mind sticking around next season. 4

Guilty as charged and yes I've been a supporter for over 50 years so I've seen plenty of ups and downs too over the years but this is completely different to anything I've experienced before - if you can't see how dire the current situation is both on and off the field then you must be totally blinkered. Our current owners have totally mismanaged the finances of the club, chosen to ignore regulations in both the EFL and PL, recruited/promoted a series of incompetent people who are unfit for their roles and handed out ridiculously-inflated contracts to a bunch of has-been mercenaries who don't care about the club or it's fans. If you think Aiyawatt is anything more than a "chancer" (to quote you) then I'm afraid you are sadly deluded. 4

Post Vichai, this ownership has been an absolute disaster, probably one of the worst in England? You might not have a club to support if you carry on supporting this ownership in blind faith. 2
