Megson - Your Opinion

[Hammond Organ]

Undecided but will give him a chance...

 

[Graz]

I'm unsure, however, I will give him a chance and judge him (as we all should) on his results.

**** that, I'm judging him just based on his hair. Fecking ginger ****

 

[cleefox]

I've voted for (even though I do not like him) because he is our manager and I will not boo him just because of that. He deserves to be given a chance to do his job. Then boo him if he fails. :icon_wink

 

[Papa Smurf]

Unsure but leaning towards the positive.

He's done it twice, he can do it again.

I'm worried about him upsetting players though.

You do make a very good point.

Can I have my vote back please.

 

[Polar Bear]

Could be worse. I'm still bizarrely open to the idea of Mandaric cutting the crap and appointing himself though. Which he eventually might have to do, as I would imagine that there's a strong possibility of any of the possible scenarios advanced for Allen's departure recurring with Megson.

 

[Singth]

Last night I felt pissed off at what I thought was a weak appointment. Of all of the names that were banded about, Megson was right near the bottom of my list.

However, after a good nights kippax I have warmed to the idea ever so slightly. Not because I like the bloke nor because of what I have read on here this morning. I have warmed to it purely because we now have a manager and all the rumours that have been floating round for the last couple of weeks can stop. It was doing my fecking head in!

Show some support for Gary Megson's Blue & White Army.

 

[Brighton Fox]

We must give him a chance IMO.

Can I assume that your letter of resignation has not been sent then......

He will be sacked by the end of Jan.

MM's history of hiring and firing managers!

 

[cleefox]

He will be sacked by the end of Jan.

The problem with that scenario is that it could mean that we are doing absolutely cack, which obviously all City fans do not want. :icon_cry:

But it could also mean that MM & GM have had a big bust up.

Or both! :icon_eek:

This sort of remark and, indeed, Allen's, "Born a Leicester fan - die a Leicester fan", idea are very dangerous, in my opinion.
I have been a city supporter for almost 40 years, and, like a lot of you, cannot see that ever changing; however, Megson is hardly the exciting name that is going to bring the uncommited fan through the turnstyle.
Milan talks of the Walkers becoming a 40k stadium. To do that we need to entertain AND win. I hope that I am wrong, but I do not see Garry Megson's Blue & White Army, achieving that - mind you, I didn't think Gary Lineker was ging to make it as a player, so .......

 

[Backdoor Ad]

I am shocked that MM would even consider Megson. IMO Megson is very much the same sort of chap to Allen (ego and all) so i dont understand why MM has done this (unless he was the best of a shite lot, which may be the case). On a personal note i live in the west midlands and two of my best mates are WBA season ticket holders and they pretty much hate the bloke.

I voted against but i hope after 5-10 games i can put my hands up and say well done MM good choice. But i doubt it!

Exactly my position........ I too, am mainly West Midlands based and know Albion people. Megson is not likely to bring much excitement to Leicester and I can't see it being a success.

However, we desparately need an upturn in our fortunes and if Megson delivers then I will be delighted to have got this one wrong.

The unique (for Leicester) situation is that since Milan is the sole owner, he can simply continue to bury his mistakes and start again, but I think he will continue to find it difficult to bring in his first, second, third choices etc.....I wonder how far down the list was Megson this time.

 

[Matt_B]

The truth is that non of us know how this will work out, the odds are against this being a success, that's obvious, but we are all City fans and need to stick with it (again).
I still believe we are in a better position than we were a year ago with RK, when we had no chance.

What odds?

enough get out clauses in that lot diken :icon_conf

 

[four king power]

I have a £50 bet on Leicester not being in the top 6 after 10 games.

I think its a great managerial signing :icon_wink
