Milan has proved yet again what an excellent judge of managers he is.
Get rid of good ones and bring in mediocre ones.
What a nightmare and I'm not a Leicester fan.
Can someone tell me what Megson has actually achieved as a manager?

take a struggling team - play offs next year. automatic promotion year after. relegation. promotion. and then he struggled so we got rid of him.
Good manager for this level - at forest he was rubbish yes but hey they're hardly world beaters now are they.

Well, Megson is the new man and I can't say I'm thrilled.

But, who else was there who was available? Nobody at the club wanted Warnock, who in my opinion would have been a better choice despite his history with us.

Reid would have been dreadful and all the good managers are with clubs and doing well, hence the reason they are considered good managers.

Lets give him a chance, Milan won't hang about if we are struggling, but I don't think we will. We still have the same team Allen had, so why should we be so negative. Most people thought we could be up there with this team under Allen, so why not Megson?

He was manager of the year in 2002, so why not in 2007/08?

I really don't understand what I'm reading about Gary Megson. 4the captain seems to have forgotten 2 automatic promotions to the Premier League with West Brom.Megson took us from being an ailing embarrsement & last day survival to the Prem in just 2 years. This was not due to luck either. Several shrewd moves in the transfer market helped. He is a good manager & he signed Kanu. KANU at ALBION !!!! We couldn't beleive it. It's only under Robson & Mowbray that Megson's signings have gone onto better things. He will get the Foxes results & make them difficult to beat like he did with the Baggies. As for Forest, there are so many problems at that club it does'nt matter who the manager is.

You can never tell how successful/unsuccessful a manager will be. Megson did well for a while but the wheels fell off at Forest, so what. Let's judge the guy on what he does at Leicester in the future. One thing's for certain, he know's more about the job than any of us.

When I read that Warnock was in line for the position I thought that was bad enough- but Megson is a complete waste of time. He was a crap player and is worse manager. So I feel for Leicester .
I think you will have yet another manager in the next six months but by then it may be too late to save the season.
Milan- You have made one big mistake!!!!!!!!

As a WBA fan I thought exactly the same, when we appointed him.With 8 games to go, he brought in free transfers and saved us from a certain relegation to the now League 1.He got us to the Play offs the following season.The season after that Automatic promotion to the promised land.Okay straight relegation.But undaunted he got us straight back up at first attempt.The football isn`t always pretty.But we have just banked £30m in player transfers following our Premiership experience.Megson made this happen!I eat my words Mr Megson.Your a legend!!

He'l ruin you. His 'brand of football' and his over aggressive approach towards the dressing room. He lost the dressing room after his first month in charge, how can any of you be looking forward to this terrible terrible man.

One thing I will say though is that he does have an eye for decent players BUT whats the point when you just lump them into a
3-5-2 'hoof' system of football. He is the king of 1-0 wins and sitting back, west brom fans love him but they were so starved of success for so long that they would have welcomed any clown to take them forward then back again.

Albion fans were so starved of success we would have welcomed any clown??? I suppose Forest have been aplum with success?

I remember not being thrilled with his appointment either. Actually heard some Megson out chants after 3 games but look at what happened at Albion after that. Maybe Forest were just so rubbish they were/are beyond help???

Can we at least give him a little time? I know he wasn't Pele, but he has commitment & passion and also the belief that Leicester ARE a Premiership side. After all, do we want a Boss that spends more time in the stands than in the dug out (Warnock) or has the pace of a fleeting slug (Reid)? ALLEGEDLY!!!
