A benign dictator like MON wouldn't last two seconds under our owners.

It seems Mirror 'journalists' simply glance at messageboards and turn the most ludicrous posts into news articles.

Re: O'Neil To Go Full Circle
I would love it....just love it. However, alas such good things rarely happen to Leicester. We will probably end up with someone like Dowie.
Having said that....until we get to that point of dissapointment, we can dream.....O'Neil with mega buck to spend, storming up the league, making the play offs at the final game of the season. Izzet at Watford with a rare headed goal and Clarridge doing the business at Wembley.

Re: O'Neil To Go Full Circle
Difficult to see where next for MON.
He isn't getting the England job or a top club job. He either wants a minor international job or a challenge. If we offered him money and control, taking us on would be the sort of weird, romantic thing that could appeal to him.
Stranger things have happened. Not many, but some.

Re: O'Neil To Go Full Circle
As much as I love O'Neill, I'm not a fan of managers, or even players, going back. If, and it's a big if, he came back, what would happen if it didn't work out? I don't want to be pessimistic - I'm usually the opposite - but I'm a little unsure. Having said that, he's done pretty damn well wherever he's gone and he'd certainly get bums on seats.

Re: O'Neil To Go Full Circle
It's the only move that would instantly put 6-7,000 on the gates and generate huge optimism and positivity.
We also have a squad that he could turn into winners easily.
Depends on what he wants to do and whether the owners demonstrate that they want him enough.

Tribalfootball have latched on to the story as well, although we seem to be playing at Walkers Park these days ...

Re: O'Neil To Go Full Circle
I'm struggling to think of too many reasons why Martin O'Neill would want to come back to Leicester - other than managing some top flight away side in a cup competition.
Don't know much about the 'O'Neil' bloke mentioned in the thread.
I guess there will always be desparate out of work ex-football managers or managers disillusioned with their current jobs, but I doubt if MON fits into either of these categories.
My best shot is that Sousa should be sacked - like today; Chris Powell given a chance on a temporary basis; MM should vacate Leicester asap - and then see where we are regarding achieving some stability and sense that might attract a decent candidate for the manager job.
I'm not optimistic because even then we are likely to be stuck with owners who are not grounded in developing the club in the right way.
