dustynrg Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 So that's Dalglish, Robson, Souness and Allardyce whose managerial careers have been in/definitely crucified following stints here. Crimony. I wouldn't include Robson in that group though. Sure, his health has declined, but he was willing to go back into management. There was a couple of jobs that came around; Hearts sticks out. He wouldn't go there because the Chairman wanted an influence on the teamsheets and Bobby was having none of it. Aye even Allardyce isn't desperate enough to take that job......so far anyway.

Guest Mucky01 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 After managing to catch a bit of Ince's MK Dons this season I was very surprised at the quality of football they played. Really good to watch but still showed a lot of desire and committment. I think he'll do well. This surely is the final nail on the coffin for Allardyce. A young, inexperienced, league one manager hired ahead of him. Big Sam is going to have to step down to the championship in order to get back into footy management. For Blackburn to turn you down ... ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won't drop down, and the clubs he would demand won't accept his style and his demands. Would clubs threatened with relegation even take a chance on him once the seasons sackings are underway?

Raconteur Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Ince has to be the favorite for the job though, right? I'm sure I read somewhere he doesn't have the appropriate badges - can anyone confirm or deny? I guess the coaching badge system doesn't really mean anything anymore. And to think our appointment of Roeder helped kill that system The League Managers' Association would have no objections were Paul Ince to be named Blackburn manager, despite his lack of a UEFA Pro Licence. MK Dons boss Ince is the bookies' favourite to succeed Mark Hughes in the Ewood Park hotseat but the Premier League could block his appointment due to his current lack of formal coaching qualifications. Ince would need special dispensation to take the role, similar to that given to former England team-mate Gareth Southgate, who got the green light to manage Middlesbrough two years ago without being licensed. The decision to allow Southgate to continue as Boro boss upset the LMA but current chief executive Richard Bevan, who was appointed in September, insists he will not lobby against Ince's appointment. He told Sky Sports News: 'It's a Premier League rule. The Premier League has made exceptions to it in the past and that's up to them. 'From our perspective, if any manager wants help to get qualifications, either football related or non-football related, we are here to help. We would support Paul Ince if he got the Blackburn job.' http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=548901&cc=3436 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got no problems with black managers getting the big jobs, but can you imagine the ruckus if the LMA kicked up a fuss about Ince being appointed? He'd play the race card just like he has before. Remember when he accused Wolves of being racist when they appointed McCarthy instead? Am sure Ince could do a decent job, and a precedent has been set before for these sort of non qualifications, but there is absolutely no chance of the LMA or any chairman kicking up a fuss about this, it would be public suicide.

That's valid - and I'm sure all sorts of PC types are wetting themselves with the prospect of the first black manager in the EPL too. To tell you the truth though, I didn't even consider it - I read your comments and thought "Oh yeah, he's black. That matters to some people." Surely after Roeder, Southgate, Grant and potentially Ince the LMA and EPL need to admit that the coaching badge system is a farce. It would be impossible to object to any unqualified manager in the future - they would be rightly ridiculed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
