Louise Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 Whoever is going to be the new manager I'd imagine they'll be appointed quite soon. With the transfer window closing next week and the amount of games left I can't imagine that the club don't already have someone in mind for the job.
breadandcheese Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 I would love to see Ricey's suggestion of Super Kevin Keegan. I think he would bring a huge buzz to the club, get the fans going, get the players going, lift the whole club. The infectious nature of his personality would inspire. He did it at Newcastle, helped Fulham to the Premiership and could do the same for us. He is the man. The only question is whether he would be interested. If he wants to get back into management and the board can sell the club to him, I think he would strongly consider the job. For a potential manager, it has to be an appealing job. The setup at Leicester is top notch. We have good support. If we go down, nothing can really be blamed on him. If we stay up, he will enhance his reputation no end and have a great opportunity to build something. Other than Super Kevin Keegan, Nigel Clough would be an equally great appointment. In all reality though, particularly if we get a result against Southampton, I think the board will give Rob Kelly about 3-4 league games to see if he can offer anything.
Libertine Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 Definately would love Keegan until the end of the season. *Drools at the thought*
MrsJohnMurphy Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 Keegan? look, in a seriousness how about norman leet & gary coatsworth!! what a combo that would be!!
steve_wilson101 Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 Keegan? look, in a seriousness how about norman leet & gary coatsworth!! what a combo that would be!! Why is Keegan not a serious suggestion - he's been out of the game for a while and isn't going to get too many better offers to get back into it. Clough or Allen would also be goo but please not Reid
The People's Hero Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 Interestingly, wildcard candidate for Leicester job Mick Hucknall, current Simply Red front man is yet to rule himself out.
Jamesino Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 Interestingly, wildcard candidate for Leicester job Mick Hucknall, current Simply Red front man is yet to rule himself out. , I would LOVE to see Martin O'Neill in, but its never going to happen... Probs Gary Mccalister otherwise..
Babylon Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 Probs Gary Mccalister otherwise.. Why Why Why Why????? I just don't understand Someone please explain WHY for the love of god?!!!
MrsJohnMurphy Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 Why Why Why Why????? I just don't understand Someone please explain WHY for the love of god?!!! Alan? Alan Brazil? Is that you??
joynojnr12 Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 How about. George Burley. He's Scottish He's managed Hearts and for a bonus point He's Managed Derby You've got to Love Him
Muz Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 How about. George Burley. He's Scottish He's managed Hearts and for a bonus point He's Managed Derby You've got to Love Him He's also just been made manager of Southampton.
M160RA Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 Demand the best. Paul Gascgoine Seriously, Nigel Clough Jr would be interesting. Where is Phil Thompson at the moment, btw?
Scow Posted 25 January 2006 Posted 25 January 2006 Forget Phil Thompson - apart from managing in Houllier's absence, where he did fairly well, but still receiving instructions, he has no other managerial experience. He's also a twat.

kendalfox Posted 26 January 2006 Posted 26 January 2006 Okay here's a rumour for you, we're back up to the cold country for the next manager: Tony Mowbray of Hibs
lookwhaticando Posted 26 January 2006 Posted 26 January 2006 Not another one?! At least I hear that guy's a bit more tactically aware than CL is (was)?! As for the GM suggestions... Just Say No! Choose life.
lookwhaticando Posted 26 January 2006 Posted 26 January 2006 Peter Reid is the early favourite to take over from sacked Leicester manager Craig Levein. (The Mirror) http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/g...ers/4649206.stm
Disillusioned Posted 26 January 2006 Posted 26 January 2006 When I read the kind of nonsense I found on here I realise I shouldn't be posting as most of you appear to have the mentalities of 10 year olds but here goes anyway. First of all please get it out of your tiny little minds that MON would ever want to come back here. Not only would personal circumstances preclude it but he wouldn't get of bed now for less than £2m a year. I also hate to shatter your illusions about his supposed nostalgia for LCFC, for he only has at best what can be described as a 'grudging regard' for the club. Of the realistic candidates who have been put forward only Allen remotely fits the bill. Sadly, those odds of 20/1 (if they are to be believed) suggest he is way out of the reckoning. He is worth an interview because he comes across as a communicator, an enthusiast and one who can relate to players. If he was a player he would lead by example rather than by sheer force of personality. But what we really need is a BIG FIERCE MAN who does rule by sheer force of personality. One who chucks the tea cups and turns on the hair dryer full blast. One who terrifies the players into playing well because they know he can beat them up for fun. Sadly @ 70 Jack Charlton no longer fits the bill. We have had more than enough nonsense about youngsters, systems and tactics over the last fifteen months to last a lifetime. And we have heard precious little about the inner game, team spirit or scrapping for victory. Over the next 16 games we need boldness and guts to stay up not footie-double-speak. And we need someone who can tell our prima donnas that with a big ****ing hairy fist.
