...certainly not someone who may see us as a stepping stone to bigger things ….

Anybody worth having will almost certainly see us as a stepping stone. No manager should be coming to us in the championship thinking this will be the pinnacle of their career.

Add to this 

 

17 defeats out of 19. 
9 consecutive home games without scoring. 

 

I’m sure our rivals are shitting themselves for next season if Ruud remains in charge. 
 

 

Don't know about our rivals ... but I'm definitely shittin myself if he's still in charge

Which is exactly what we want. Someone who can prove themselves which means we're successful too.

Brighton are looking at Jelle ten rouwelaar, whos our GK coach/assistant coach, one who RVN brought in

so its certainly signs there could be a change a foot, as JTR is probably one RVN wouldnt want to lose

Well either way the people he’s brought to the club have done naff all so he’s got a second chance to get it right if he stays

Ideal scenario is someone comes in, takes us up, survives and then gets poached for a sum.

 

Won't happen though. 

 

 

 

Which is what happened last time. Didn't work well.

 

In many ways I'd prefer a manager who keeps us decent next season, not necessarily play offs, but thereabouts, builds a rapport with Leicester, gets us up the 2nd season in not too spectacular fashion, so doesn't get poached, and then comfortably keeps us in the EPL 3rd season and having a history with the club.

 

Recently it's been boom or bust.

If we were desperate then like you said, we'd have pushed Mads and Bilal out the door like we did with KDH.

 

Could we not put him on gardening leave if we wanted to sack him?

It’s been explained before that any indication of trying to offload him before July 1st would mean he’d get compensation at PL level nit Championship wage level. 
shame it hasn’t been pinned to stop the same questions being asked again and again.

Has Top and Rudkin ever actually appointed a foreign manager without experience in the English leagues?

How long have you been a Leicester fan?

No, Enzo left before a ball was kicked, he didn’t keep us up.

Well that’s wrong because I’ve never ever worked for a hospitality company in my life lollollol

Not sure about him, does pretty well in the Champ though I guess.

 

Might be wrong but doens't he play 532 352? which would be strange with the squad we have where are best attacking players are wingers.

 

TO be fair last season looks like it was a mix of 442 or 4 3 3(variations of that)

I might be flawed in my thinking, but I'd prefer him to Dyche for example.

I'm not a massive fan of him. He's been a success throughout his career mainly but something about him just makes me not want him here.

 

Mental that he is on the verge of the sack though, having finished on 90 points last season. They were better than the other three teams that finished top 6.

Done a top job at Boro getting sacked in 22nd, Watford 2 months for what ever reason and now Sheffield united about to pump even though he nearly secured promotion.  Not exactly Mr Stability

More recent promotion experience, marginally less awful football and probably cheaper to sack.

The thing is that the clubs hands are tied right now.  It's most likely that if they act on a new manager in any way then Ruud can claim that he's pushed out and the club and sue us for a pay off at premier league rates.  The club has to sit tight till July then we can bin him off at a lower rate.

 

Ruud contract probably wasn't written in our favour.

I can't remember the specifics but you shared a whatsapp image and it was a work group chat and that company did work with the club, so I assumed that's how you got your info lol YEARS ago!

Really - no way - surely not - wilder has been average at best and truly hopeless in prem - Dyche has got to be a better option - has to be

We could definitely appoint a worse manager than Wilder but we would really struggle to appoint a bigger bellend and it's a good few years now since he last did anything particularly impressive, so my feelings would be mixed
