Kevin Philips - yes, definitely would help! Can give our 'strikers' a slap!

 

Id honestly consider starting him

So the only person that’s tweeted this is John Percy? Not seen anything anywhere else? 

All the news outlets are reporting it now he's expected to takeover and considering he was main topic on Radio Leicester seems like it's most likely.

He is a close as you get for a genuine source about for us.

He’s also Anthony’s mouthpiece. Could easily just be “tell them we’re working on something to shut them up”

[Leicesterpool]

Fear is if Rowett turns down or talks break down, I truly think there's no one else the board will turn to other than they will stick with Andy King till May.

I was Rowett, I'd look to bring back someone like a Mike Stowell in either returning as his role as goalkeeper coach or even appoint as assistant manager. 

Hey Mike how's the family.

Absolutely shocking that they've taken over 3 weeks to decide on Gary Rowett. I don't think he's a bad manager at this level, but if the egos in this squad didn't respect Cooper, RvN and Marti, I just don't see them respecting someone who is very much a journeyman Championship manager.

We have to back Rowett. He will have higher standards regarding the basics than anyone else in the club, from Aiyawatt, Rudkin, the players and all the fans who thing what we are witnessing is ok. It might not be a quick fix, the damage is likely done. But this club needs a culture shake up, especially if we drop to L1.

[Mickyblueeyes]

Delay due to Aiyawatt sending across too many 2000s memorabilia across to Rowett to sign. 
 

After watching the league cup final v Boro, Aiyawatt, now being an avid fan thought Rowett was the pick of the Taylor signings. Has based his entire amateur career on Rowett right back (sometimes right sided centre back) qualities. 
 

Aiyawatt’s other favourites of that era include Damien Delaney, Arnaur Gunglaugson and Billy McKinlay.

Presumably the delay is him meeting/speaking with the owner. Everything is signed off by him and needs his rubber stamp to finalise. Hopefully there's not much polo on this week. 

If we can take anything from deadline day, it will probably subject to league approval 😂

Sale and Carolan will come with him.

 

Would be decent if Any or all of Delap, Kevin Phillips and Callum Davidson joined him, too. 

He only took Sale into Oxford to be fair as far as I can make out. Would presume it will be the same here.

Surely not?

 

If they waste the Stoke game and give him the first game new manager bounce away at Boro, that'll probably seal our fate before his reign has even begun.

I agree it would be absurd, but do you trust them to speed things up and get it done before then. History tells us not.

I think Percy would dispute that. He;'s had the phone call a couple of times about writing nasty words. 

[Joe90]

He has to be in the dugout for Saturday can’t afford another loss, we need change asap, if we get this done Wednesday latest he will be in dug out Saturday surly?

The fact that's a thing is hilarious. Don't want nasty words, don't be shit at your job 

[VLC86]

I think Top might be in Japan so you can probably expect this to be confirmed in March sometime.

He's desperate for that Delaney dinner party invitation:

Announce anyone! Clock is ticking and another training day wasted 

[RowlattsFox]

Hoping that all the media stuff needs to be done but he has taken training yesterday and today.

This doesn't add up. Dyche was sacked 5 days ago, we've gone 23 days without a coach. Either their few days was 2 and a half weeks, or something else happened they aren't allowed to tell us

Makes perfect sense.  We spent a week waiting for Enzo to call back, a week interviewing candidates... Reluctantly about to give it to Rowett, then Dyche gets sacked and we spend another week trying to convince him to come.  After telling us no for the 50th time, we go back to Rowett.

They wanted to see how Andy would do.
