Leicester sack sousa !!

[Blackpool Shrimp]

How many managers have they sacked in the last five years...must be approaching double figures

[Seasider9601]

Didn't they have Ian Holloway there briefly too at one point ?

[Plain Peter]

Mark McGhee, a leg-end in his own lifetime, began the curse of the Leicester managers years ago.

Mark McGhee was stood behind me in the paddock at Christie last season at the 4-3 v. Crewe game. Watching intently Mr Duffy !!!

Wat a supprise

did you see him on Sky Sports news yesterday

Never got over losing Martin O`Neil to be honest.

I make it 15 managers in 10 years.

[marky No.1]

You are correct. The Office desk must be constantly tidy!

there are some top class managers in that list! its unbelievable how none of them ever managed to do well with leicester, the club must be cursed!

But the only man to do well there in recent years is currently jobless, could their messiah return to the Walkers stadium?

also Svens been linked to the job, just like he's been linked to every single mangerial vacancy there has been in england for the last 2 years!!

Championship what a league I love it.

I was thinking start of the season Ipswich Burnley and Bristol City going up.

Did not see the shocking Bellamy signing for Cardiff.

And Bristol signing David James come on.

Leicester getting rid of so many managers is shocking why knock Sousa Sousa was a good boss with Swasea and this barly missed out on a play off spot come on.

I would love Sousa as Charlton boss if we did not go up this season really would.

New Leicester boss looking at Errickson Sven or the King and legend Sir Alan Curbishley come on those two bosses joining a joke team like them

[heysham_mfc]

Was it not garry Megson that said in this first press conference as new Leicester manager 'I have been given a long term contract, I think it's about 6 weeks'

[Little Shrimp]

Looks like our old friend from Notts County, Sven, will get the job:

Sousa's time was up, his team selection was poor, the football we were playing was poor, and his signings are poor. He was never the right man for the job really, but if Mandaric wasnt such a **** we wouldn't be in this current predicament and we would be challenging for automatics with Nigel Pearson at the helm.

However I am optimistic about having Sven as a manager, a good appointment IMO
