Micky Adams - will he get the boot?

[Icy Gull]

Looking grim for the ship jumper (or hero, depending on your viewpoint).

Not sure, but I think Leicester have less points now than when Peter Taylor got the sack. I know MA hasn't spent much but to lose a 3-0 lead in such a crucial game means confidence in him must be starting to waver.

MA never was a tactical genius and his "up and at 'em" style is unlikely to help dig Leicester out of this mess.

Will he last the season or will Leicester accept that without money
there's nobody who can turn it round?

I reckon he's gonna get the boot soon.

I wouldn't want him back, would you?

 

[Albion Rob]

Can't imagine him going, I reckon Leicester will probably take the same view as Charlton did with Curbishley and let him have one relegation then see if he can get them back up at the first attempt. Worked brilliantly at the Valley and the continuity is what has seen them become a pretty decent side.

Not sure if I'd want him back. He shat on us once, never again.

 

[watsongooal]

I wouldn't want him back, would you?

Not at all, what did he ever do for us?

 

[Marshy]

NO chance.

 

[BrightonBird]

No he won't go. The club and the fans didn't have much hope staying up this season. It's been 1 mistake so far by the team.

I wish Leicester all the best.

 

[Simster]

He got them up first time of asking, so to sack him after a handful of games would be dumb.

I agree with Albion Rob - one relegation for the sake of continuity.

 

[Dez]

They'd be mad to sack him. He's doing an okay job in a very competitive division, and if they do go down, Micky will be the best person to get them back up.

But then again, if Leicester have had enough of him I reckon most of us on here would welcome him back with open arms.

 

[ditchy]

wouldnt have him back...never works second time around !!

 

[perseus]

Yes, but when? October is the normal time.

 

[34064 Fighter Command]

The big question is how much are Leicester relying upon Premiership survival in their business plan ?

Can they afford a second stint in the Nationwide yet, or will MA be under pressure to try to ' panic buy ', given thet he's got no money to spend and will be forced to take gambles on free transfers.

Really Leicester are doomed, but I think MA will go down with his ship. Then there will a savage cut back in the playing budget and they will languish in Division 1. However when it is apparent that MA can't keep flogging a dead horse, he will be tempted by the Southampton job as Strachan is suddenly sacked for failing to achieve UEFA qualification........

Trust me, it willl happen.

 

[marvin]

Promotion, as I understand it, last season was not in their business plan at all so i guess this is a bonus for them.

If they go down they will go down in a better financial position and will be able to build for a sustained return to the prem.

So I think MA getting the boot just yet is unlikely.

Poor chap he'll be out by Friday!

 

[Tooting Gull]

It's too early to get rid of him, Wolves went up about four places with that win on Saturday, Leicester could do the same and they were always relegation favourites with Wolves anyway.

 

[JJ McClure]

He brought in a lot of players over the summer, but they all appear to be very average.
With no money to spend they'll be doomed.

 

[Life After Bobby]

All of the new contracts (including Micky's me thinks) have a clause in them so that if (when) they get relegated their wages will drop accordingly to a first division level. very sensible.

leicester will not be getting rid of micky in a hurry.

 

[albiongirl]

The way football is now with the fans and chairman wanting instant results ( in the Prem ) as it affects the business plans etc. I can see him being the next manager to be sacked if things don't improve. Doomed is the word!!!!!!!
