The next Leicester City Manager

[Grewks]

I won't believe it until he is sighted in Morrisons.

Where did your rumor come from?

[BoneDog]

I want to see Steve Howard playing for O'Neill.

He'd be like he was in his sub appearance against Derby every game, all fired up and shit!

[poggypogpog]

Where did your rumor come from?

Just from a friend (hence me being unsure as to whether or not to put it up).

As for the Morrisons link, I thought all people joining the club were sighted in there beforehand?

[Kitchandro]

Could these days be coming back?

[Grewks]

Could these days be coming back?

The infamous days of men with huge bald patches?

If we get Ancelotti then I will piss my self(litterally) and then cover myself in cow muck.

The only odds that have consistantly shortened across all bookies today is Hughes and Lee Clarke...and a few firms on Benitez. Can get 33/1on benitex at bodog...8s 9s and 10s at skybet-william hill and stan james respectively. might be worth a couple quid

[whoareyaaa]

I hope to god its not Benitez this will be the most boring football we could ever wittness.

[BIEREDeLuxe]

When someone is at 25/1 it doesn't take a huge punt to get their odds to halve, though. It would take a lot more wonga to get someone previously at 5/1 to go to 3/1, for instance.

[Leicesterpool]

Personally I cannot see it being Ancelotti or Benitez both of them I think will be looking for premier league jobs.

No offence to you at all, my friend, but little more than a year ago, some were saying "please, God, don't let it be Dowie" and now it's "please, God, don't let it be Benitez". Interesting 12 months here, then, huh ?! Anyone else think the new manager's biggest challenge will be managing expectations ??!!

Everybody has a price

[Number 6]

Reckon it'll be Hughes which would be ok but not the best appointment imo.

read in paper today ancelotti was going to take the west ham job and so was prepared for championship

[foxfanazer]

For me it's oneill, moyes or Grayson but think Steve Clarke could do a good job but maybe nit enough if a big name for the owners

[ScouseFox]

I hope to god its not Benitez this will be the most boring football we could ever wittness.

Why?

We'd be inundated with shit loads of Spanish players, too

[dannythefox]

O'Neill would not go to the training ground they wont meet in Leicester!

[flanimal]

I really hope it's O'Neill.

Yes that is the biggest challenge for the man coming in, but he will know that when he signs!

The main thing will be to get results they want prem football next season. nothing less

[Joe.]

All in all we need somebody experienced in English football and experienced at this level. Anything other than that would be a major cock up on the owners' part, and put us right back in this position in a year's time tops. So that rules out your Ancelottis of this world I'd like to think.

While O'Neill might not have managed at this level for a long time he has so many other redeeming qualities that make him somewhat of an exception.

[Tommy G]

He could be at Belvoir Drive if they have met elsehwere then said to him "come check out our new training ground, we've got proper showers nowwhich is a contrast to when you were last here"
