Speculation Who would you choose?

[spionfox]

dissappointed with MON that he isnt prepared to gamble with his "mr perfect image/reputation

His 'image/reputation' has gone down in my estimation.

Bottler.

 

[Filthy Rich]

He's not coming. Simples.

How do you know the others in the poll also aren't coming?

If nobody came none of us would be here.

Bottler.

Exactly my thoughts. He's bottled it. Almost any manager worth his salt should be able to get this squad of players promoted.

 

[homer]

I see what you're saying. You mean, although he's not applying, he hasn't said what he's do if he was actually approached by Leicester?

Has been widely reported as not being interested, but what he actually said is that he is not applying for any job, and he hasn't heard anything yet about any contact from any other club

I think The Guardian article today, written by a good journo' who knows MON, is spot on. However this is only my opinion. Feel free to tick 'other' and then post MON.

Other - Roberto Di Matteo.

Billy Davies from this list though.

 

[Uncle Connolly]

Other - Roberto Di Matteo.

Billy Davies from this list though.

Either of those two for me please.

 

[Mawsley]

Keegan.

Or the exhumed decomposing corpse of Sir Bobby Robson.

the exhumed decomposing corpse of Sir Bobby Robson.

Certainly better than Paul Ince.
Now there must be at least another 922 I'd prefer to that arrogant git,
let me think........

 

[butchdingle]

who has said the second comng will not happen (discounting paper talk)

 

[M17TT C]

I'm not sure why but everytime I read Karl Robinson's name I automatically think of Karl Pilkington.

Any chance KP can be added to the list as he would get my vote?

 

[Leigh]

In wildest-never-going-to-happen dreams Pearson. From that list, Billy Davies.

 

[Miles Away]

Mr. Dilkington would be superb.

 

[Macky]

who has said the second comng will not happen (discounting paper talk)

Is this a question? Or are you stating that Mr Who has said it won't be happening?

 

[Macky]

I'm not sure why but everytime I read Karl Robinson's name I automatically think of Karl Pilkington.

I'm not sure why either, but I'm guessing that it's because they share the same first name. Other than that, I'm baffled.

Watt is your name.

 

[RHYDAL]

Where's the Shearer option?

 

[Brown Nose]

I've not written the MON option off like most have yet. Journo's know feck all and the Thai money can be very persuasive.

But just in case he doesn't . . .

Of the names on this list, Mark Hughes is miles superior. He did a good job with Wales, Blackburn, Man City and Fulham. Overachieves consistently. Gets his teams organised and physically strong and competitive. Banker to deliver the remit.

The roller coaster romance of Keegan would be exciting and dramatic though. His record of getting teams out of this league with finance to support him is excellent. If one of the main attributes required is motivation then he ticks that box too. He's also got the profile.

Davies would get us up this year or next but I'd have zero confidence in him at Premier League level. Hughes or Keegan would get us up and keep us there.

All the other options look like unnecessary gambles to me. Clark may be good but he may not, etc.
