Simon79 Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 He had Covid last year, took some time to get over it. But listened to an interview with him possibly in October/November last year, saying he’s ready to go back in with the right offer & club. He definitely got stung with Watford & believes he would of kept them up. A no nonsense person who I actually think would appreciate the way Lansdown goes about his business. Would certainly be a good option. COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petehinton Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 He’s the sort of appointment that if any other club with a good squad would make, we’d all say ‘well, that’s them promoted then’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynamite Red Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 At Leicester he also worked under a DOF who was responsible for the recruitment process https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Walsh_(scout) Would maybe be a fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRock Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 Seems to have a bit of the ‘dark side’ about him... which is an interesting character ‘trait’. Unsettling, for all and particularly so players, who at least will never be allowed to slip into any comfort zone. If he doesn’t command, he demands respect... a good leadership quality. Aside from that, a winner and fighter. As a team takes after their manager... that’ll do me. Also an ability to see right through bullshitters which is a major plus point in terms of our ‘football operations’ people. Yep, given the pool of managers we are fishing in this is a realistic appointment which could prove an excellent fit for our current needs. Go get.

SouthStand Sandwich Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 Do it. Foundations he laid for Leicester... Incredible. No nonsense manager... He'll turn up the heat on the players. This will be an ideal appointment in my view. Not a yes man. Come on, get him. He can fight Ashton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
