Yebbut he's moved on

He's bigger league now

Martin O'Neill used to manage Leicester. Criag Bellany used to play for Norwich. All stepping stones, and you don't go back if you've proved yourself on a bigger challenge.

        Kenyon has stated repeatedly that Chelsea need to be the world's number 1 football club (NCFC) - blindasabat, Sep 21, 14:42:00
        
        The few times i watched them i thought they played good football.. (NCFC) - Alan, Sep 21, 14:50:21
        
        is that the free-flowing football that enabled Arsenal to go a whole season unbeaten? (NCFC) - blindasabat, Sep 21, 14:57:52
        
        Different team... (NCFC) - Alan, Sep 21, 15:03:25
        
        not deliberately picking an argument over this at all (NCFC) - blindasabat, Sep 21, 15:08:08

        Good point... (NCFC) - Alan, Sep 21, 14:39:14
    - Spurs would be perfect though. Chelsea is a no win situation for everyone. With Spurs (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Sep 21, 14:04:20
      - It would certainly be good for the English league, I agree (NCFC) - Old Git, Sep 21, 14:08:50
        
        Well before Chelsea he was at Porto. Good team but not top brand (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Sep 21, 14:13:00

        Regardless of the budget, (NCFC) - Alan, Sep 21, 14:30:58
        
        That really is tosh, the credit crunch must be addling your brains (NCFC) - Old Git, Sep 21, 14:25:43
        
        He is a far, far better manager than Jol (NCFC) - Old Git, Sep 21, 14:09:41
        
        Yes, because he'd teach them how to dive and whinge (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Sep 21, 14:08:50
