We're going to need to sack Ruud before the end of June so will probably exceed PSR anyway so as I say above - Sack him, pay the compensation, accept the punishment, get the best, most suitable manager in who will come regardless of paying for them. Better to have the best manager and take the punishment than having a manager no one wants and struggle anyway . While you're at it get a recognised, experienced and successful Director. Just stop dilly dallying, be decisive.

https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/ruud-van-nistelrooy-future-latest-10126761 Ruud van Nistelrooy future latest and why PSR suggestions don't stack up in manager decision Ruud van Nistelrooy is expected to be in the dugout at Wolves on Saturday, even as he calls for talks over his long-term future at the King Power Stadium following relegation Ruud van Nistelrooy looks set to take charge of Leicester City’s fixture at Wolves as rumours continue to swirl around his future. Van Nistelrooy has been asking the club for talks over next season for a few weeks, and he said following confirmation of relegation on Sunday that City would be “wasting time” if they held off a decision any longer. It is now expected that those talks will be held from next week. The Dutchman has a contract until 2027 but after overseeing City’s fall into the Championship, as well as a record losing streak and a four-month home goal drought, there are considerable doubts that he will lead the club next term. But at the very least, he is expected to be in the dugout at Molineux on Saturday when City take on Wolves in what is now a dead rubber, with van Nistelrooy due to preview the game at a press conference on Thursday afternoon. Van Nistelrooy has previously said he would honour his contract and has started to prepare for next season, discussing in the aftermath of the Newcastle defeat that City were “changing course” and looking to the future, with selection changes and teenagers Jeremy Monga and Jake Evans handed debuts. But City’s future may not include him, and names have already started to emerge as potential candidates to be his successor. In the past couple of days, former Southampton boss Russell Martin, Sheffield Wednesday’s Danny Rohl, England Under-21s coach Lee Carsley, and former Burnley and Everton manager Sean Dyche have been linked with the job. Suggestions that City may hold off on sacking van Nistelrooy because of concerns over Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) for this financial year do not appear to stack up. City are close to the wire on PSR for this season, hence their January business being limited to one £3m signing, but waiting for the new financial year to sack van Nistelrooy would be leaving it too late. The accounting year runs to June 30. If City waited beyond that point to sack van Nistelrooy and appoint a new manager, they would be interrupting their pre-season preparations for the new Championship campaign. If City do want a new manager in the hotseat to lead what they hope will be a Championship promotion charge, then they will need to make a decision on van Nistelrooy before June 30, and so in this financial year. Given those concerns around PSR, it would make unemployed managers more likely to be targeted, so that no compensation fee would be needed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sack him, pay the compensation, accept the punishment, get the best, most suitable manager in who will come regardless of paying for them.

I agree that’s why I said ala Vishal. Sadly if you’re looking for the best up and coming options in any role they’ll likely leave.

I think he's still waiting for the season to start.

Depends what your aiming for. If it's short term stability and to then stagnate at the bottom/top of the PL/FL then Dyche probably fits If we want to go back to basics and rebuild for a future top 10 PL position ala Vichai then I think Dyche is the last Manager you want.

No and Yes

There's plenty of 30/40/50 year olds who can find no fault with Top or Rudkin I see them around me at every game and on FB Yeah I'm fed up with being tarred with the same brush.

Could well be another Taylor

Couldn't find a thread for this. Maybe people couldn't give a shit anyway. As per talkSPORT’s Jason Bourne, Leicester have just sent out a media invite for Ruud’s pre-Wolves press conference, seemingly suggesting he will still be in charge for that meeting on April 26. He wrote: “It appears Ruud van Nistelrooy is staying on as Leicester manager, for Wolves on Saturday at least. The club has just sent out a media invite for his regular pre-match press conference on Thursday.”

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/teams/leicester-city 'It doesn't feel like there is a clear strategy' - why fans are frustrated BBC Radio Leicester's Owynn Palmer-Atkin says a lot of what has been happening at King Power Stadium "hasn't really made sense". Explaining why it has been a disappointing and "frustrating" season for Foxes fans, Palmer-Atkin told BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club: "It is from top to bottom, and it is all around strategy and their alignment now compared with what they have had before. "The recruitment is patchy and hasn't really made sense, and the managerial appointments don't really add up either. Alongside all of that, there is quite a deafening silence from the board, who haven't spoken for a great deal of time. "If you add all of those things together with the performances this season and relegation, it makes for a frustrated fanbase. "They are also escaping Profit and Sustainability Rules by the skin of their teeth, so it is not good. It doesn't look like they have a plan. "I saw the logic of hiring Enzo Maresca. They understood the way he wanted to play and they backed him. It was a risk that paid off. But when he left they brought in Steve Cooper, who is not really the same sort of manager. "Maresca to Cooper to Ruud van Nistlerooy doesn't feel very joined up. "Paired with poor recruitment, it doesn't feel like there is a clear strategy that links all of the club together."

The second half of the competition following the group stage - which saw City place third in Group A, behind New York Red Bulls and Minnesota United, but ahead of Vancouver Whitecaps – began with a last-16 play-off match against Charlotte FC at IMG Academy Field last Wednesday, to decide who would progress into the Premier phase. The Foxes youngsters played seven matches across the tournament. A goalless draw in normal time forced a shootout in which the MLS side claimed a 3-1 success. The result moved Leicester into the Showcase phase, firstly losing 2-1 to Cincinnati on Thursday. Recovering from that disappointment, the side coached by Adam Barradell held D.C. United to a 0-0 draw two days later, though it led to a 4-3 victory on penalties for the Washington-based outfit. The tournament concluded for our youngsters with a six-goal thriller against St. Louis City SC on Sunday afternoon, drawing 3-3 to end on a positive note, and place 20th in the overall standings. City will now return home for the remainder of the U18 Premier League South season, resuming with a home fixture against Tottenham Hotspur, facing the Lilywhites at LCFC Training Ground this Saturday (11:30am BST kick-off).

The Record Office for Leicestershire, Leicester & Rutland · THAT WAS THE WEEK THAT WAS - 21st April 1925 Great news about Leicester being a place for a major air port. It does have a lot of potential.

This if he stays, not only committed but intelligent.

Exactly this! This is why so many fans have supported this club or any club for that matter for so many years.

I don’t believe we are asking for everything I’m not convinced we need to know everything. At the moment it’s nothing, anywhere in between would be a step forward.

Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Röhl told The Sheffield Star after today's defeat at Stoke City: "You speak about quality, decision-making; if you want to improve as a club, you have to do a lot of things right in the summer, otherwise - and this is what I will tell you - next season will be a big, big fight to stay in this league because we have a big group of players that are not able to play at this level with my football." Sounds familiar.

Even if he had he was the wrong choice, just look at Reed and Ayew. Just another cog in the topsy turvy thinking by this board. There was no future with him as proven at Forest.

Nothing Changes Song by Jewelle Blackman, Kay Trinidad, and Yvette Gonzalez-Nacer ‧ 2019 Lyrics Listen Artists Why the struggle, why the strain? Why make trouble? Why make scenes? Why go against the grain? Why swim upstream?

Doesn't mean we shouldn't try. I'm sick of hearing the club coming out with that's what other clubs do. Let's be better than them.

Don't take NO for an answer. Remember the 5 Whys? The "5 Whys" technique is a problem-solving method that involves repeatedly asking "why" five times to uncover the root cause of a problem. It's a simple but effective approach for peeling back layers of symptoms to get to the underlying issue. By starting with a problem statement and iteratively questioning "why" each subsequent answer, the technique aims to identify the root cause that, if addressed, can prevent the problem from recurring. Mind you I tried this with a Director once and my immediate boss had to ask me to leave the meeting. I was eventually proven right though.

TNT Sports Football · Follow A banner was flown over the King Power Stadium before kick-off today, with a message directed at the Leicester City board. The fans are not happy

We've been relegated a record 14 times and this along with the Mclintock year have been the worst.

Surely that's why it was waste even if he plays e3very game next season. If he wasn't good enough to play this season then save your money or spend it on someone that might have helped, although you could argue we were beyond help.

What a waste of " million that was to add to all the other wasted millions.

I think at this point we can forgive anyone for venting their anger and frustration verbally. Release of frustration and anger is all fans have.
