Can we please stop all this absoultely ridiculous talk of Gerry Taggert being the next manager of Leicester City. After the game I usually switch off Radio Leicester straight away but for whatever reason I decided to listen to the after match discussion today. After sitting through the second caller that said they wanted Gerry and Stevie Walsh as the new managemewnt team I had had enough. Can someone please tell me exactly why Gerry Taggert would make a good and sensible choice as the next manager of Leicester City. The same goes for Steve Walsh. Steve Walsh was a legend of a player for us but has exactly zero coaching or management experience. Before anyone say's it, I know he took charge of the team in a caretaker role before but still he has never managed. Gerry Taggert was a very good player for us in a very successful time in Leicester City's history, but again I ask, where is his coaching or managemet experience? Being able to motivate players is one thing but I would question whether Taggert has even been able to do that in his time here as coach. We would all like to say that Megson is responsible for Scunthorpe and Sheffield United while Taggert is responsible for today and Sheffield Wednesday but that is simply not true. I know you must judge someone over a longer period but we didn't with Megson, did we? People need to take off the Leicester City specs and realise that an unproven manager with no experience whatsoever would in all probability be the death nail for our club right now. Let's be honest, if we were seriously considering any other person who had no experience of coaching or management we would all be up in arms. As much as some of the names linked with the post scare the sh!t out of me, I would have any of them over Taggert or Walsh. The only ex City player who deserves any consideration is Simon Grayson because guess what, he has been there and done it and is doing a damn site better job of managing in the Championship this season than any of the twats we've had so far. I would love for someone, anyone, to give me just one sensible reason why Taggert or Walsh would be a better choice than Souness, Jewell, Grayson, Newell etc. but I know they will not because their isn't one.
