On The Road


So we are sniffing around Paul Ince then.

For what it's worth I think it would be a great appointment. A view shared by many of the fans on the Leicester City Forum, Talking Balls.

You have to wonder in some ways why he might want us though. OK the Dons have only just come up into League 1 and we should be at the top of that next season (oh please let it be so!). But you would think twice, wouldn't you, about coming to work with someone of Mandaric's track record? Unless you didn't have much too lose or the deal was too good to turn down and worth the risk.

Plus I heard on the radio this evening that Blackburn are interested in him too if they can't secure Allardyce.

You have to wonder just how many manager's jobs are not a poisoned chalice these days. Mark Hughes has been told he must make the top six by the end of the season or else. Last season was littered with casualties and you just know next season will probably be the same if not worse.

If I was a football manager I would probably take to living in a caravan. It's much more suited to such an itinerant lifestyle.

I think its interesting what it may say about Mark Hughes that he is prepared to actually go and manage that club.

Ambitious, confident, ruthless and motivated by money are the things that stand out for me

Don't forget the good job Ince did at Macclesfield. If you did get him, he won't be MM's yes man, although I doubt Holloway and Allen were either!!

GB: I fear for Mr Hughes at City. He is very capable and is one of the best managers around but it is very unstable there and .......
areallaticfromthesouth: Mandaric is a hard man to please that's for sure
