Popular Post Buzzell Posted 7 February Popular Post Posted 7 February It’s unfair for King to take any of the blame with what’s happening this season but he’s in no position to take on the managers role. We need an experienced head in who can sort this shit out. 14

Jazzy_Jeff Posted 7 February Posted 7 February Gutted for Kingy. 2 first half red cards, a missed penalty, a defensive brainfart and several injuries. The current issues aren’t on him. 2
Popular Post ALC Fox Posted 7 February Popular Post Posted 7 February 39 minutes ago, FLAN said: Massively overrated as a player. Who would have thought he’d be the same walkover as a manager. club legends don’t pass backward or sideways all the time Solid Championship player. Hero in League One. Yeah we probably outgrew him in the season Pearson took us to the Prem but I don't think anyone is saying he was a top PL player. He's well thought of because he did everything that was asked of him while he was at the club. Never kicked up a stink when he was out of the side and was a model pro and good role model. He was also one of our brightest sparks at the worst point in our history. That breeds goodwill. Not entirely sure that means he's not a good coach either. And I'm not sure that a couple of games as interim manager is indicative of how he'll be as the top dog one day. He's also learning the ropes at one of the worst-run clubs in the country. He'll get a proper chance somewhere in a couple of years or so. Or maybe he'll just remain a good first-team coach or assistant. The club has put him in this situation and a player has been sent off early in both games he's managed, ruining any kind of prep he would have made for both of those matches. I don't think this situation is the right one to be judging how King is/will be as a coach or manager. 6

Chelmofox Posted 7 February Posted 7 February (edited) He really could have done with the following senior pros stepping up and embracing their leadership within the group: Riccy Okoli Ayew Bobby Winks (today - was much better against Charlton) And although he scored a very good goal, Abdul needed to be much more disciplined. When the players that are here to drive leadership let you down, it makes your life as a manager very, very hard. Marti talked a lot about Bobby's football brain - he showed very little of that today when it was desperately needed. I didnt think Begovic was much cop either, especially if he was brought in to provide experience. 2 huge mistakes which if Jakub had made everyone would be going bananas about.

Wink84 Posted 7 February Posted 7 February Not sure why people are going for King. He was an under 18s coach less than two seasons ago. He was brought into the first team fold to help blood the promising young players under Ruud. Roll on to now and he's managing the squad outright for the first time in his career under a ridiculously bad situation. Having to turn around a club that's got a massive hangover from our worst PL ever (i think) coupled with the off field problems. No money, atmosphere must be dog shit at Seagrave. Now weve had a points deduction for the first time in our history. And in the two games hes been in charge too international players got sent off before half time in a league below when we signed them from. They are meant to be PL players. Its easy to blame King because hes the current face. Hes trying his best, weve seen small improvements in both games despite the sendings off compared to under Marti. Yes King may not what we need right now and should not be in the position hes been put in. This is down the Rudkin and Top for sacking and then taking their time to recruit a new manager, yet again. And also the players, they need to take a long hard look at themselves. King can do everything right but if the players make brain dead decisions what can he do. 1

Either you had your head in the sand from 2008-2014 or you are very silly.
Popular Post Patrick Posted 7 February Popular Post Posted 7 February King is a club legend who is just beginning his coaching career and has been dropped in the deep end due to the incompetence of people above him. He isn't ready to be a manager at this level and he's said the same himself. He's the last person the fanbase should be taking their anger out on, that should be reserved for the idiot nepo baby owner who has once again sacked a manager with no idea of a replacement. 6
Gevans_97 Posted 7 February Posted 7 February He’s had less than a half of football with 11 men in 2 games. What are people expecting? 1

Gubbins Posted 8 February Posted 8 February 11 hours ago, when_you're_smiling said: Oh yeah. Because you can have that career by accident can you? I dunno, he did in a way. That list of achievements should make him one of the greatest ever Leicester players. Vardy and Schmeichel level of legend but hes not is he. Try and come up with a list of games where king was outstanding, or the best player on the pitch and youl struggle like hell. He remains the only player on this forum ever praised and defended for doing 'so much good off the ball work'. He's really more of a cult hero, a long term Kevin Russell , fairly mediocre player who would pop up with memorable or important goals but just happened to do it during a very successful period. 1
