Martin is apparently represented by SMI Sports Management International so I guess that’ll be where Rudkin will be fishing for players for the foreseeable.

Think that was when he was a player. Last few managerial appointments has just been him and the fella in the picture. Not sure if he’s linked to a bigger agency. 

[ALC Fox]

As he's here I'll support him but I don't think he's the right fit.

 

Maybe he'll get the youngsters playing some nice, confident stuff.

 

I'm expecting a number of gaffes as we aim to play it out from the back alongside the odd game where we put six or seven past a team.

 

I'm going anywhere in the top half by the end of next season (if he stays).

It's starting to become clear that McCarron has been brought in as some sort of "Yes" man who will do as he's told and when it all goes wrong, Top will be able to say "There, there Rudders, it's not your fault, we'll blame this guy instead and the fans will hate him now, not you.  It's not your fault, buttercup".

Any word on an Assistant, 1st team coach, GK coach, fitness coach and futures of King, Sadler and Hughes or are we gonna faff around with that, too?

[Muzzy_no7]

3 year deal is quite astonishing

🤔 ...hmmm how about Leicester first ever vegan manager.... It's ideal for him with all those Indian veggie restaurants

You’ve just reminded me about Hughes  if ever a club was intentionally throwing away money, he is it.

We can’t really set expectations until deep into the window. 
 

There’s a huge turnover of players required and it remains to be seen if we’ll be able to shift who we need to, whether we even have money to reinvest in replacements and if we’re going to target new types of signings or stick with the same agent driven ‘strategy’ 

You're taking sense but unfortunately it's all utterly irrelevant. Club of our size should never be in this league, let alone in the circumstances it's happened. Whoever's in charge has to get us up, it's just that with Martin, he's going to get absolutely no slack

Remember these stupid grins in a few months time.

Can we throw burgers at him after the 5th game without a win?

Premier League here we come

I can see the clubs pr now going on a drive to improve rudkins image, expect plenty of faked natural shots of him looking friendly and approachable.
 

It’ll be like when the Labour Party told Gordon Brown to smile more, it’ll end making the kids cry and scaring old women.

Can’t wait to see Lucy and her twins down at the ground next season.

Last 5 managers less than one season.

Brainwave 

Let’s offer a 3 year deal 

I reckon he'll actually be here in a years time. As big a clown as he is he's probably likelier to win more games than he loses and as long as the possession is high they'll be happy. Can see this lasting a while unfortunately.

 

Hopefully this is the final pang of the Aiyawatt regime.

2 hours in and not even in the top 30 stories on BBC Sport - no one can justifiably utter a single word of defence for King Power.

[ozleicester]

We will promote.

Not the most exciting. I expect to feel pretty much how i do about Pep Jnr.... but as long as we get out of the division and develo a winning mentality we will be fine.

I’m sure Jon is friendly and approachable in his life outside of work.  He’s just out of his depth running a football club.

I've noticed the new KPFC line is 'we are a league one club now'  seems to have replaced we used to be in league one you no. 

 

Laughable that some fans think that's the only manager we could of got. 

[Katy]

Cheers, Katy’s crying. Nice one

So basically if we're successful that means we'll be successful. Good shout
