Callabinho Posted 26 May 2013 Share Posted 26 May 2013 If the daily mail has printed something it's usually brown, sloppy in texture, and a product of a bull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulsherwood1 Posted 26 May 2013 Share Posted 26 May 2013 Just read it. Looks like lazy journalistic crap to me. The bit that swings it is at the end where it says I if they can't get MON they will stick with Pearson. Bull. If a club decides it wants a new manager that's what they do! Just because a target turns them down they don't suddenly decide to keep the one they have got! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Fox Posted 26 May 2013 Share Posted 26 May 2013 Didn't somebody allude on here that MON would like a return, if so he is more than welcome to come would be a significant improvement on NP and would get us promotion.

Mack Posted 26 May 2013 Share Posted 26 May 2013 Without Robertson with him this is not a good move. With all this talk flying around about a possible change at the helm I can help feeling there is something to it, especially when you add to the rumours the lack of activity in playing personnel at the club right now.

MooseBreath Posted 26 May 2013 Share Posted 26 May 2013 I wouldn't be surprised if this is O'Neill himself feeding it to the media to get his name mentioned and possibly provoke an approach from another club. He has used us in this exact same way before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all this talk flying around about a possible change at the helm I can help feeling there is something to it, especially when you add to the rumours the lack of activity in playing personnel at the club right now. He's only still there because we have no one lined up who wants it. Lennon was definitely approached as i mentioned a week or so ago but has evidently decided it's not for him at the moment. Pearson is incredibly lucky to still be here. It was written into his contract that in his second year we had to finish top two, and if we didn't then that was one of the criteria upon which he could be sacked. Before anyone says how do you know that, i'm only going on what Kasper has said in a conversation. Also, after Marshall played a half in that development game towards the end of the season, he was fuming. He didn't train for four days and seriously dislikes Pearson. So i guess that explains why he looks like half the player he was at the end of last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guaranteed all most full home crowds. Not sure if I agree with that. Crowds might come at first, but if we don't perform, then people won't pay to attend regardless who manager is. Also, would O'Neill be a 'significant improvement'? He does seem to spend loads of money, and his last job at Sunderland wasn't exactly a success. Look, I love O'Neill as a Leicester fan, and as a football fan, but I'm quite bored of all this now. Sure, it won't be true anyway, but you have nothing to suggest he will do a job here other than looking back 15 years? And as Mack said, I doubt anyone would take him without Robertson.

Of course MON would be an improvement on NP, has NP ever managed in the prem successfully? - NO Has NP ever managed promotion from this level- NO With regards to crowds you may well be right though.

LCFC_Nige Posted 26 May 2013 Share Posted 26 May 2013 Surely the only time MON would've even entertained the idea of coming back was around the time we appointed Sven. What do we have to offer now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornyhollthefox123 Posted 26 May 2013 Share Posted 26 May 2013 Surely the only time MON would've even entertained the idea of coming back was around the time we appointed Sven. What do we have to offer now? A fan base that adores him, a young squad that has just finished in the top 6, and the fact that he wants to get back into managing as soon as possible.

So, from what you are saying the owners are actively looking to replace Pearson, but wont sack him until they have the replacement lined up? If they want O'Neill I'd doubt he will take a job under those circumstances on principle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicesterpool Posted 26 May 2013 Share Posted 26 May 2013 If MON came back then without doubt season ticket sales would double in minutes. No smoke without fire! One thing to take into account when last time MON was linked to the job, they just he was being considered they never said he'd been approached, this time they have. Maybe MON is desperate to get to work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
