Come on down

[City Fan]

When was the last time we kept the same manager all season?

Micky Adams - Premiership season I think, absolutely shocking.

 

[Melton Fox]

I love it when the BMs get hysterical.

 

[Uncle Connolly]

I didnt know that two losses could affect the more 'senior' members of the forum like this.

Its an idiotic idea that would destroy the last threads of stability the club is desperately hangs onto.

You really think people are that fickle?

I'm glad you've told me we have only lost two though, for a moment there I thought it was more.

i think its just due to fans waking up to the fact that despite picking up 7 points from 3 games, we still look too shit for this division

 

[Trifull]

The last thing this club needs is a new manager. We've changed again and again and we can all see the effect it has. It hasn't worked.

I'm saying this deliberately after a couple of defeats so no one can accuse me of mongying. I'm one hundred percent behind Holloway.

Not because of his repartee but because I like the way, as manager, he's trying to take the club.

So you believe we should stick with a manager that has a 30% win rate. To get out of this league we need to have a 45-50% win rate. 30% will keep us where we are every season, fighting for survival. I've supported Leicester throught thick and thin for 35 years, this is the worst style of football I've seen. We're not Barca, we can't play 4-3-3, it isn't working and if the manager wont change then change the manager. Stability can only be achieved if the club is going forward, we're going downward.
The reason changing managers hasn't worked, is because the managers we've had aren't up to the job, niether is this one imo.

Come MM do the right thing and get Sam Allardyce in. Ian Holloway couldn't manage his way out of a wet paper bag, so we need the best Manager available and that has to be big Sam.

MM, if you want to go down in history as the man that took City down to the lower leagues then stick with Holloway. If you want effectiveness then hire someone effective. If you don't, you are just pouring money down the drain. :icon_conf

What a load of hocum!

And Sam did a great job at Newcastle didn't he??

We must get behind Holloway and the club as best we can. He cannot be blamed for the squad he inherited and the general shambles that is LCFC at the moment.

In fact, I would argue the players he has brought in and what he is trying to do is actually very positive - it will just take time. Changing our manager every 3/4 months is not going to benefit anyone. In fact, that what has been happening and look where it has got us..........

Someone needs to tell alnwick that the midfield can do **** all if the ball spends the majority of its time flying over their heads!

I very much doubt if this is a decision by the keeper - he will have been instructed to by-pass the midfield. Presumably Holloway and his coaching staff are pessimistic of our ability to play a passing game through the midfield.

I tend to think that we are not in a position to get shut of Holloway - but unfortunately, I don't think he inspires much confidence either. However, probably the best think is to hope that the sceptics like me are wrong about him and that given time he might just improve things.

As for Steven's point - unfortunately no top manager including Big Sam would currently touch Leicester City with a very long barge pole - so regretably we have to get real.

Why???????
Take the job, feck it up and get paid off. Very easy money to laugh all the way to the bank with I would say.

How can you say this is the squad he inherrited, it's not. total turn over of players in January ... 18. That's players leaving and arriving, this is now his squad. He's kept who he wants, loaned out a lot of the younger players, and those that weren't required have been paid off. His team are playing no better than those before, in fact probably worse ! The man is a muppet who obviously think his humour hides his incompetence, it doesn't.

Exactly what Holloway is doing !!!

What and you expect his new signings to come in and suddenly change us to an unbeatable side?

It takes time my man, something which all fans don't seem to have. And why all of a sudden is this guy a muppet? When he left Plymouth, they were 4th in the table. He obviously was doing something right there?

Lets not forget either that Martin O Neil did not win one of his first 13 games and we all know what happened next.

quote from a Plymouth fan ....

''He left us in 7th - we went 4th after the next game with Bulpin & Penrice in charge. Apart from that I agree with the no tactical brains etc He is a 2nd rate Keegan ie good motivator, good media man but limited tactically.''

Why bring the players in and then chop and change them ? Can't the Hungarians play together ? How many games have we now played this 4-3-3 ?
Holloway said he didn't buy Hayles and Howard to play together, yet every game, there they are. C'mon man, look through Holloways smoke screen and see it isn't working. He needs to be man enough to admit it isn't working and change it.

 

[Mattmeister]

Mr Trifull, if you fell so strongly about all this, why don't you start up a "Holloway Out" chant at the next home game. Then we'll see how many fans really have got the stomach for yet another change of manager.

And as for the quote from the Plymouth fan, you can't really claim that they've been very objective wrt Hollway.

 

[Cate Fox]

I cant believe I have sat and read that... panic time again

If he was such a shite manager, then why did the Plymouth fans get so upset about his departure. Most fans are glad to see the back of a manager if they dont like what they see.

I am lost for words. I presume you write a post like this in jest.

It makes perfect sense to keep the management instability going doesnt it.... :icon_roll
