Sniffer-Clarke Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 Todays N.O.W. Links Paul Ince with City /Wolves this rumour never seems to go away for some reason.Think he was on MM radar last time when you know who got the job.
Zingari Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 if its true i would go for that :scarf: but somehow i think he'd plump for the yam yams
Jon the Hat Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 Perhaps this is due to the fact that Ince wants to move upwards, and his agent is linking him with shaking looking manager's jobs. So if we did get him in he would off as soon as something a little bit better came along. Not what we need.

However if any manager can get LCFC into the Premier there's not many clubs he could go to that would provide a higher profile and if they did it would mean they've been spectacularly successful ala MON, I'd accept that as the price a club like LCFC pays for success.

And if MON had left for the first club that came in? Was it Leeds? Everton? I forget. We might look at it differently.
Darkzzz_ Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 I hate the media, they contribute to most sacking's i tell you!
Fez of Mahrez Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 And if MON had left for the first club that came in? Was it Leeds? Everton? I forget. We might look at it differently. Both. You make a valid point. He doesn't convince (OLE!) me fully just yet as there is no way MK Dons should be anything other than top of League Two but they play good football etc etc. Surely Wolves manager in waiting though.
Jimmy Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 And if MON had left for the first club that came in? Was it Leeds? Everton? I forget. We might look at it differently. you're right we would, but he didn't, he turned Leeds down, who knows had Little stayed maybe he'd of done what O'Neill did, but we'll never know will we. as for Ince, seems to play decent football at MKDons, but do we really want another influx from there lot whinging about us poaching their manager?
Simi Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 He's already turned us down once. But it seems he may be ready to move up soon, although I doubt it will be here.
Jimmy Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 He's already turned us down once. But it seems he may be ready to move up soon, although I doubt it will be here. did we actually approach him? we were linked but I don't think we ever approached MK for permission
davieG Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 And if MON had left for the first club that came in? Was it Leeds? Everton? I forget. We might look at it differently. We'll never know but it doesn't alter the fact that a successful manager at LCFC will likely lead to their moving on although I do believe, with the influx of foreign managers that it's actually less likely these days unless as I said the success achieved was spectacular - I'd still settle for it.
Simi Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 did we actually approach him? we were linked but I don't think we ever approached MK for permission We got bumped off by him, trust me.
Jimmy Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 We got bumped off by him, trust me. I said last time I wanted a Grayson-Little partnership and I still think that would of been best as they knew the club, liked a good style of football and would of had the fans behind them, where as every appointment Milan has made has had the fans split

Agreed. Successful managers will always move on, but with Ince it just looks like he isn't the type to actually demand of himself that he achieve anything first.

Jimmy Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 You don't think Liittle would have had the fans split not if he were only in a DoF or assistant role no
Daggers Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 You don't think Liittle would have had the fans split The fans had their say - and rejected the best man for the job in the process. I'm not convinced about employing Little in any capacity but I hope to God no one listens to the fans opinion anymore! They are idiots.
davieG Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 not if he were only in a DoF or assistant role no I detect a note of delusion then because there are many fans who would be outraged if he returned, I'm not one but you only have to visit various forums to detect that.

They are idiots. who was "the best man for the job"? Warnock? if so he rejected us
Daggers Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 who was "the best man for the job"? Warnock? if so he rejected us No he didn't. There is a difference between what was portrayed on television and what actually happened.
Jimmy Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 No he didn't.There is a difference between what was portrayed on television and what actually happened. he said he didn't want the job, that is turning us down in my book
davieG Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 he said he didn't want the job, that is turning us down in my book I guess it depends on who you believe, but I can't imagine Warnock admitting we turned him down. But I'm not in the know that many people seem to be in.
Daggers Posted 24 February 2008 Posted 24 February 2008 he said he didn't want the job, that is turning us down in my book He was interviewed in April, he was MM's prefered candidate for the job until representations from supporters organisations told him that there would be war on the terraces if the appointment went through. having sounded out further opinions, MM reluctantly decided to continue the search for a candidate. This was all prior to this season's public, televised "rejection" to a job offer that had not taken place.

I find that very hard to believe. Sheffield United still had a very good chance of staying up in April - and he was being interviewed for our job at the time?? I don't buy that at all.
