The Voice From Above

A guy from the Daily Mail was on SSN this morning talking about MA, Leicester and this article.
He said that he believes Martin Allen is a future Premiership manager and was generally really positive about him and City.

"When he was at MK Dons, he took the players to Bournemouth in a battered minibus. He took them to a hotel that had a small swimming pool that wasn't heated.
"He ordered them to take off their clothes and jump in. Two refused. Two weeks later, both players had left the club. It's commitment."
Maybe thats why Mackay and Fuccillo were sacked?

I like the bit where he talks about the parents of the Winchester under-9s:
""They were welcome to attend matches, but they were allowed to shout only two things: 'Well played' or 'Good pass' and nothing else. "
Perhaps he should give the same message to the 30,000 fans that he expects to see at the Walkers!

For me this is like a breath of fresh air in the club. His methods seemed to be geared to be putting fight, loyalty, pride and commitment back into the players and that has got to be worth a few extra points over a season. Maybe the Foxes never die mantra is on it's way back.
What is strange that is that I feel both optimistic and pessimistic at the same time. Can't wait for August 11 but perhaps it's been the crap few years we have had recently that makes me dread it too!

Cheers Ox! When the Mail article said it was a "few", it really isn't is it, unless they meant a few dozen.
