MPH Posted 11 November 2007 Posted 11 November 2007 Oh losing the will to care , Fine, Ince will be a risk but i'm sure he wouldn't get us relegated at least!!! WOuld love to hear what MK DONS would have to say if we nicked him hehe i can almost see the steam coming out of RedonReds ears as we speak!
Stevosevic Posted 11 November 2007 Posted 11 November 2007 So nobody else has heard this on radio Leicester? More BS?
DanTheFox07 Posted 11 November 2007 Posted 11 November 2007 So it could be Grayson, Dowie, Adkins, Holloway or maybe Gary Johnson i bet you its Dowie I think before when mandaric was Trying to get Dowie as manager for us only seem`s logical that he wants him as our manager again. Hard to say if Dowie is the man to lead us to better things, but he has done well with coventry and no disrepect to them but our squad is much stronger. I don`t think Ince is the way forward, this job demands someone who has experience and can get the best out of our players and were to big a club to be taking a gamble on an inexperinced manager like Ince. Having said all that Manadaric needs to get this man installed a.s.a.p whoever it is.

Lineker's Left Foot Posted 11 November 2007 Posted 11 November 2007 intresting album in your profile.... ' disintergration' kind of somes up our season so far... Afraid you've hit the nail on the head !!! Maybe I could put the cover of Lightning Seeds' Jollification on there, but it wouldn't raise my mood unfortunately !!
Raj Posted 12 November 2007 Posted 12 November 2007 Listening to Rl after Sats game and Walshie seems to be more and more desperate in his attempt to gain some employment with LCFC. he was hammering Burrows(about his lack of motivation regarding his demenour etc....) Walshie is a legend and always will be. However,he is getting rather boring with his continual "I can do a job for City!!!' Im sure Taggart would like a quiet word or two in his lug hole!

Yep i must say i agree raj. Ive been listeneng to him on a couple of occasions this season from the perspective of him being the manager running the club and pulling the strings from the dug-out. In a nutshelli think we would struggle. He would be technically inept and too inexperienced.

We have some quality players but have no consistancy through the team. Why are we "too big a club". We have been sh*t for years. I really cant understand this comment, is it because we have a 32,000 capacity Stadium or is this a comment born from the 90's when O'Neil was here.... We are an average Championship side with great potential, however I would also like to point out that that phrase actually stands for most teams in the Championship now!!!

Agreed, but to realise that potential is going to take a lot more than shoestring finances,a large but very average squad of players with little or no motivation,increasingly disillusioned support and buggering about with the manager every 6 weeks or so!

Too True, Milan needs to put a man in charge and stick with him. Granted Megson leaving was through no fault of Milan and in fairness he seemed to want to support him (even if the fans were unsure). I just hope that whoever takes charge is in it for the long run and doesnt just see us as stop gap job.

How many Championship clubs have won major trophies in the last 15 years? Or pulled average crowds of over 30000, in a season which saw just THREE home wins? The potential is definitely there - however the leadership needed to transform it into achievement is not, either on or off the field.

The potential is definitely there - however the leadership needed to transform it into achievement is not, either on or off the field. With the greatest respect Ultra, what happened in the last 15 years means sod all at this moment in time. That would be like saying, How many other League 1 clubs have won a European Cup? Its about whats happening on the pitch, which at best is distinctly average. An average crowd of 30,000 is indeed good although the morale of those 30,000 isnt.. I am like you and every other True Blue, I want my side to be great in the Premier League and I would also love to be on my way to Wembley again for a League Cup final but at the moment, as a wise ex Leicester Manager once said " we are a million miles away from where we want to be"
Ultra Posted 12 November 2007 Posted 12 November 2007 But it's where we've been in the not too distant past, and where we could be again given the right management. Whether our current chairman will be able to locate and/or attract that management remains to be seen.

We cant live in the past. Forest won a European Cup, Leeds were in a European Cup Semi Final not so long ago but it doesnt help them now. They are League 1.
Dames Posted 12 November 2007 Posted 12 November 2007 There is not a single manager that we can attract that would salvage our season. Its about time they stopped feeding us the bullshit of promotion because we can't hold our own in our own league let alone against Premiership teams every week.
Fat Ron Posted 12 November 2007 Posted 12 November 2007 The remainder of this season should be used as a Transition period. Get a manager in and providing we do not get stuck in the relegation battle (again!!) what ever he achieves will be a bonus. He should be allowed to focus on new players, change in systems & tactics in order to stablise the club. Talk of promotion at the beginning of the season made me chuckle but to talk about now is getting beyond the joke it once was. The glory days will be back, I have no doubt about that... but we need to clear the decks and build the side up again from pretty much scratch to achieve them. The players we currently have are not consistant enough, not strong enough and in some cases simply not good enough to compete in a Promotion chasing side.
Ultra Posted 12 November 2007 Posted 12 November 2007 The problem is that many potential managers look at what happened to Worthington and Allen and are scared off. If players are allowed to undermine them by whinging to the chairman whenever changes take place, we haven't got a hope in hell of turning things around.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 12 November 2007 Posted 12 November 2007 Paul Ince, the man whom Alex Furgeson (who I can't stand, but respect as one of the best managers in the game) refered to as "a right charlie"? Oh dear
FilboFox Posted 12 November 2007 Posted 12 November 2007 I'd be happy with Ince... plus he'd be interested in coming here! All the others are in better positions or at clubs that are in no worse state than us so I can't see why they'd come... must be Ince.
Thracian Posted 12 November 2007 Posted 12 November 2007 Paul Ince, the man whom Alex Furgeson (who I can't stand, but respect as one of the best managers in the game) refered to as "a right charlie"?Oh dear We've had plenty of "right Charlie's" here who didn't have anything like Ince's pedigree. Within the context of most of the names who've reportedly been under consideration I cannot see any problem with Ince. He's young, ambitious, been there and done things at every level in the game. He's had a measure of success at both of the club's he's managed and he'll have a good a list of contacts as anyone we're likely to attrct. He'll know from relatively recent experience what is needed to win matches at a decent level. If he wants to come I doubt they'll be anyone else better qualified. As I say, all managers are a risk. Ince doesn't strike me as the sort of guy who'll put up with losing for long.

I really disliked Paul Ince as a player but as much as it pains me to admit this I think you might be right about his ability to become a top manager.
Bernie's Love Child Posted 12 November 2007 Posted 12 November 2007 MK Dons would love us nicking another of there managers!!!
Maybes Posted 12 November 2007 Posted 12 November 2007 If mando wanted ince he would have had him in the summer. Bloody turnstile men.
