Rumours of Gary O’Neil being clubs initial preferred replacement if McKenna were to go - don’t think he would be a bad choice in all fairness |  | | |  |

Just so we're clear. You think McKenna has stiffed us to make sure we didn't get the release clause that he agreed to in his contract? |
No one is going to know the full story but I don't think the OP is far from the truth in his statement that McKenna wanted to go to Fulham - it feels like his agents definitely put feelers out via Alex Crook.
It doesn't mean than Kieran 'stiffed' us, he was just looking after his own career ( I'm of the belief a potential 2/2 relegations on his CV was the biggest factor in him not staying) and between him and the club decided the 'break' was the best move for both parties - what with Fulham being one of those clubs who could fall into a relegation fight with a poor appointment, we were also right in digging our heels in and not facilitating an easy move.
As for Gary O Neill I choose to ignore that stuff in the hope it goes away ugh... [Post edited 11 Jun 11:57]

"Feels" is not facts.
Why on earth would his agents put out feelers to a talksport journo (and no-one else) when they could just call up Fulham directly?! |  |

Yeah, its a discussion forum and this is obviously just my own take on what I think happened. | | | |

Um, for starters I haven't said I'm right on anything. I've just said there's no proof he's right. Secondly, why on earth would I accept he knows something until Gary O'Neil is here? |
He never said he would be here, just that he is a potential replacement and immediate national reporting seems to corroborate that. This stuff isn’t too difficult |  |

Before they got Clement, O'Neil was a favourite for the Norwich job.
Many Norwich fans were very unconvinced by him and I was hoping he might go there as i could see him taking Norwich down to L1. I can't believe 8 months later he's now favourite to be our next manager. And that's after we've been promoted to the PL.
Surely this job is seen as a top job. It's PL. How can O'Neil get overlooked for the Norwich job when they're desperate to stay in the Championship and yet he's now favourite after we've been promoted? | | | |
